By the syntax, it can be omitted, but this still means setting
border-bottom-color to a specific value, namely the value of the color
property for the element. Ref.:
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/box.html#border-shorthand-properties
If you do not want to set it (but let the property have the value that is
set elsewhere, e.g. in your stylesheet when it sets border colors for links
in general), don't use the border-bottom shorthand. You can set
border-bottom-width and border-bottom-style separately.
