> Status: Rejected
> Change Description: none
> Rationale: As per bug 24591 we are moving towards making border
> non-conforming. There is absolutely no value in making border a boolean
> attribute given that its only use is presentational. Using border as an
> indicator that a table is not presentational is not a sensible heuristic for
> the specification: that's the default value anyway.

As per the my comments in bug 24591, including reference to a HTML WG decision,
it does not make sense to keep border out of the list of permitted attributes.
