But remeber that actually we cannot set equal borders in all
directions, as the long one is larger than the short one. Usually not
a problem, for thin borders, but can be for somebody if he is trying
to set a large border. So probably, we should be able to set it in
pixels. If the user copy&paste it over a 200x500 image, it will get a
larger border than image, but that is not a problem, IMHO.
