Dear LibreOffice QA Team,

I can confirm that the undesirable behaviour is still present in LibreOffice
5.0.2.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this
bug report BECAUSE I STILL USE LibreOffice 3.5.7 and there seems little point
in going to the trouble of installing a new version each month just to confirm
that the Bugzilla status is unchanged.

During that time, the details of the problem have changed,  Yup, THEY HAVE GOT
WORSE: there is a rendering issue now as well and a data entry issue.

Install yourself 3.5.7 and use the Python macros attached to create a thin, a
thick and a double border round disjoint selections of your choice in a new
calc workbook.  You will see the results are nice and reasonable.

Save the workbook and re-open in it 5.0.2.  The thick border now appears as a
thin border (regression since 3.6.3) while the double border looks a little off
in the corners (regression since I don't know when).

Now create a new workbook in 5.0.2 and use the Python macros as before.  The
thick board macro produces a thin border and the double border macro produces
nothing (it will in fact clear any existing border).

Save the workbook and re-open in 3.5.7,  The thick border now appears as it
should but there is no sign of the double border.

If someone at the DF were to show an interest in this I could do more testing
but my previous experience of trying to fix Open Source bugs is that fixes from
folks the developers have never heard of have, well, snow ball and hell come to
mind.

I could re-implement the macros in OO Basic to prove the data entry problem is
or is not pyuno specific.

I have run git bisects in the past to isolate regression problems,  Is your
code base suitable?  I have the impression that the implementation of cell
borders was something that changed significantly between 3.5 and 3.6 so
isolating the pertinent commit might not be helpful.
