The wording should neither contain "Margin" nor "Border". The region in
question is "page margin area" plus "page border area" plus "page padding
area". Thereby "margin", "border" and "padding" are used as defined in CSS, see
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Box_Model/Introduction_to_the_CSS_box_model
or https://drafts.csswg.org/css-box/#box-model.

It could be named
page region left of page content area

But that is too long for the drop-down list.

You need "page" in the item, because you have regions related to paragraphs in
the same list.

Perhaps a total different concept is needed, for example a large preview, which
has place enough to show the regions in question and has for each region an
identifier that can be used in the list.

The paragraph related items have the same wording problem.
