One of the main uses of outline is for accessibility. I think it automatically
discards using SVG...

On the other hand, the div proposal is what seems unnecessary for me. Why
adding additional markup for faking something that should be rendered by the
browser? I think only few ppl thinked about it when all the border-radius fever
started. 
I know maybe it's a pure cosmetique issue, but aren't border-radius,
box-shadow, etc... the same? I think the main problem is that not much people
knows how to use outline properly, and even it's a common (bad) practice to
remove it, but should that move us away from doing things right? I don't think
so.
