Subclassing BlockBorder is fine, although I should probably have defined 
a Border interface or something similar.

For new classes, you can either attach the file or post it to the Patch

For modifications, a patch generated using 'cvs diff -uN > patch.txt' is 
ideal, along with some description of what the change does.
