I would like to tweak the default layout in SharePoint, e.g. add...

.ms-number {
    white-space: nowrap;
}

... to all pages.

I know it is possible to modify a master page directly, but is it the best approach? What about themes?

If it's SharePoint on-premises then the best way is to create a Solution with a Feature with a <Control> element targeting the AdditionalPageHead delegate control. Then you can easily turn it on/off and it works regardless of which master page you choose.

For guidance see Adding jQuery to Every Page in SharePoint with Delegate Controls

There are some ways to achive this but I always use the style library to store my customized css files and reference them from the master page in the head section. Just add these lines if procceed.

 <SharePoint:CssRegistration ID="CssRegistration1" Name="Themable/corev15.css" runat="server" />
 <SharePoint:CssRegistration ID="CssRegistration2" Name="/Style Library/css/customized.css" runat="server" After="corev15.css" />

So you just change the v4.master file directly? –  Egil Hansen Aug 22 at 13:00
