Border and NoBorder were okay as long as the whole border was treated as a single object. When it gets split into four parts, is should be Borders and NoBorders.

I have no objections against an additional '%' suffix. But the problem with breaking compatibility here is that it is virtually impossible to write a script that converts existing configs to the new syntax.
