I stand corrected on this one. The spec doesn't specify any relations between |border| and |borderColor| and there seem to be one (or at least you are going to define one). I tried IE9 with your patch and it doesn't seem to be recognizing |border|. I am fine with matching FF here but this should be brought to the WHATWG attention for standardization. There may have an opinion on that too.
