Hello PFWG, Border are not intended for focus rings: we have a separate 'outline' property that's intended for this use case: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/ui.html#dynamic-outlines An author can change the color/style of the browser/OS focus indicators by changing the 'outline' property's values on the focused element. A user can disable such modifications by restricting it via !important rules in the user style sheet (or an equivalent UI control) just like disabling author-specified colors and fonts. Let me know if this addresses your concern. ~fantasai
