You need an extra container (ie another element in the DOM), unfortunately. In the case of the back button in desktop, the DOM looks roughly like:

<toolbarbutton><img/></toolbarbutton>

and the toolbarbutton is rectangular and clickable, and the image gets the border-radius and visible border.

I wouldn't worry about it for the initial thing we're shipping, unless you have other reasons to be concerned about the reduced hit area for the buttons.

This is probably the right time to confess that I get motion-sick really easily and, in large part because of that, have never tried a VR headset. So I'm not actually sure how users are meant to interact with these buttons when the browser is used "inside" a VR environment. Would they still use a "traditional" pointing device and/or keyboard, or something else?
