My main point is that you shouldn't have that power only for a side note or footnote or element in a margin box. It should be just as easy to selectively style any element within the main content area, based on the page-selecting @rule.
Also, your rule above means that _everything_ floated into a sidenote gets a border-radius, but that might not be what the author wants. Perhaps only certain boxes in the sidebar should get that, and other sibling boxes should not.
