I'd much prefer it to follow the curve, but I don't think it does so in any browsers. So I think it is left intentionally unspecified until an 'outline' itself is updated in some future spec. 

I sometimes end up using box-shadow instead for this reason, but box-shadow doesn't have the ability to offset the way outline does.
