RE: Border and background images

background-1-image: url('foo.png');
background-1-position: left top;
background-1-repeat: repeat-x;

etc?
z-indexes are calculated as usual, i.e. the last background image is the
topmost one.
If you want to explicitely specify a z-index:
background-1-z-index: 4;
You'd need to have for all of them to display as indended, I propose, to be
consistent with the "normal" z-index for elements, where the fourth element
doesn't have a z-index of 4, either, if it hasn't been assigned a z-index.

I don't see any implementation problems here. Of course, background-image
should be available for BC.
