Yes, you are right. I've played with the effect a little more now, and  
did some testing, and agree that the background (and foreground)  
should still be clipped by the curves of the border-radius. But border- 
image should remain unaffected, because border-image is there to  
create a different border than what border-radius applies to. And box- 
shadow should also be hidden by border-image, for the same reason  
(because border-image is there to create a different border than what  
box-shadow applies to).
