Because I really don't like it at 1 pixel. No, I can't give you a
rational explanation as to why, I just don't like it alright :-) I
actually run the bar with no border.  

It seems silly to me that you can customize everything except the bar
border. If you add this functionality then customization of visual
components is pretty much complete I think -> colours, fonts, padding
and borders.

The only exception - 'defbarloc' should probably become defbargravity
and accept a gravity argument. Although I don't want to run it in the
centre of the screen, I'm sure someone does :-)

Those def* commands really were the slippery slope ...
