This is an interesting question, yes. My opinion is that it would be good to do this in VCL ("font"), so not only Writer can benefit from this, but later also other applications.Well, I was originally more thinking on something around the writer layout... borders aren't the same things than underlines and friends. However the idea to be able to reuse it from VCL is appealing. Problem coming from that: the code for borders painting is using cod from svx and drawinglayer... would we be able to use that from VCL fonts code? I'm not sure at all ;)
Sadly that's indeed not true, you can't even use svtools::GetDashing() from VCL. So might be easier to go with a Writer-only layout for now.
