The .border-right class would interfere with .span-xx classes. I also
question the utility of such classes when the width and color are both
pre-determined. I'm also pretty sure that it will not work as expected with
.prepend-xx and .append-xx because those use padding and so your border will
be outside the prepended/appended columns.

Regarding OOCSS, I wasn't suggesting that you change from blueprint, but
rather learn from the concepts which are there to adapt to the strange
box-model interactions like this one. OOCSS is less of a framework like
blueprint, and more of an "approach".

In short: if you want composable classes, you need more markup to address
the "skin" of your columns (until box-sizing is broadly adopted by the
browsers).
