No, because its a burden either way. There is no way to know which cell the
border belongs to. The other spreadsheet software have a shared methodology, so
having a different methodology makes it a burden of having to learn a new way
of doing things. If it acted like the other software it would be a similar
problem that users know how to deal with, instead of a new challenge for users
to figure out how to overcome.</pre>
