-The frame is the area behind the tabs - this is the 'convenient grouping' area
-for our tabs. We wish to avoid including things within the frame (such as
-branding elements) to work away from making the frame feel like a container
-(ideally you'd think of it as 'goo that binds tabs together').

-## Window border
-
-Our window border extends five pixels outwards around the left, right, and
-bottom edges of the content - three-pixel edges were too hard to grab. The
-border consists of a one-pixel tab border, three pixels of frame, and one pixel
-of dark frame border. This high-contrast edge ensures that the content (and the
-rest of our UI) doesn't bleed into other applications while allowing the content
-to feel like it is inside the tab. We have experimented with reducing this
-border size by one pixel, but the larger frame was more positively received.

-## Frame corners

-Like all Windows apps, we have aliased corners. We originally wanted a square
-frame, but this clashed with other XP desktop software. Instead we have corners
-that are tighter than the default and feel tighter still (compare the shape of
-the light-colored area in the Office 2007 frame with the medium-blue,
-non-highlighted area in the Google Chrome frame).
-We spent a long time playing with the lighter grey pixels on our window border
-to make sure they didn't blend in nasty ways on various backgrounds.
-While it's technically possible to get drop shadows on Windows windows, it comes
-at an unacceptable cost to performance and stability. \ No newline at end of file
