I'm the opposite. I don't ever want sans-serif to display unless I've explicitly set it in a CSS class. I'd never use it for my main body text.

When you say 'add an extra stylesheet at the top', do you mean somewhere in the calibre prefs? As a Kobo user I'd never want to add 'font-family:serif' in the book CSS files because in many cases it would stop the on-device font selection feature working properly. In Kobo-land font-family:serif is equivalent to enforcing font-family:Georgia.
