As soon as you have border image defined
'box-shadow' attribute is not needed.

It is easy to define shadow of the box (or reach the same visual effect) by 
using border image (possibly with alpha). See 
http://terrainformatica.com/w3/expandable.png as an example.
(third box from bottom)

And border image paradigm is more universal.
