I think this is a result of our using pseudoelements for the borders. I hadn't realized this effect existed. Matt, is there some way we could avoid this?

(reproducible on OS X beta as well, so I'm just going to assume this happens everywhere)

What "effect" are you referring to?

Sorry, I don't really understand the bug (see above) and that was delaying my reply as context switching this in is time-intensive.

I suspect (but could be wrong that) the pseudo-element isn't needed for the nav-bar but was more useful for the outline that previously appeared on dragover/hover for other regions. Bug 963576 comment 16 talks about switching to pseudo-elements but I don't remember other details.

The fact that the end-side of the element's border can disappear when content overflows in the overflow:hidden customization-target.
We removed the dotted borders.
