Both border AND padding will contain margins and prevent the

actually "proved" that the spec is being followed in this instance.
Ah, yes. I'd missed the parenthetical comment. So that *is* precisely
what was going on, after all.
Exactly, and a 1px padding works better on uneven background (like
images), since IE/win is no good with transparent borders.
When we add the fact that 'hasLayout'[1] can make IE/win un-collapse
those margins and "bug" the standards, the whole issue of 'collapsing
margins' should be quite easy to keep under control.
