No border attribute at all.

In Zope you have to specify you dont want a border you have to call 
<tal:image replace="python: here.some_jpg.tag(border=0)">. What we want 
to do in Plone is this: <tal:image replace="here/some_jpg">.

Much easier, more readable and probably faster.

Right because the border attribute is not standards compliant, and is 
deprecated. So this way if you don't want to meet standards, great go fo 
it, but otherwise you'll get the right tag.

For more information on that, ask the Plone UI guys they were the ones 
who asked me to do this somehow. Borders should only be done in CSS.

That's what CSS is for and that's why it will probably never go into the 
core - let's break everyone's images folks...
