By the way, the visual result of using negative offsets is that it would reveal whatever is behind the now invisible border-style border. Since that one is still staking up space, it would be similar to having a zero opacity border there, with the images of the image- border moved inward to reveal that fact. Its a little odd, but probably doesn't add much complexity at all to the rendering, so I don't see any reason to prevent it.
