Overall it looks quite well except for few issues...

Do not do this. Default font-family for tt/pre is just good enough. If
you don't like it, change your desktop/browser settings.
I beg to differ. I tried 4 Browsers on 2 OSes, and it looked bad to me
in all of them using the default user agent settings.
IMO, the 80% font-size is too small to look any decent using the user
agent font settings for tt / pre elements. It's hardly readable! (bad
with Firefox on Fedora, worse with Webkit on Windows)
But removing the 80% font-size setting looks ugly, too.
Any way, if there was only a single browser with bad defaults,
wouldn't it make sense trying to fix this for better user experience
instead of telling all users to change their settings (on every single
system they use)?
As this is mainly a matter of taste, other opinions, please! Or better
yet, alternative solutions...

Just
font-family: monospace;
without other families and without the huge line-height which makes
reading hard.
OK, I'll reduce the line-height. It had to be that large for the
underline decoration of links. But see below.

Leaving just
text-decoration: none;
would be best.
Agreed.
Here's a follow-up patch:
