See my opinion on this below, but note that I can't speak in name of the theme designers (in fact, I've no experience in this field):

I don't really think this is a bug nor that it's very several (I hadn't heard anything like this until this report was created), but if some users have problems with the currently provided themes a variant of the human theme (or whatever it will now be called on Hardy) with thicker borders (and perhaps other usability changes) would be adequate to be also included in the default installation.

Of course adding an option to change the border thickness on the properties dialog would be better, but as the GNOME guys said this isn't that trivial, there's really more important stuff where time should be spend than on patching this. Unless someone could come up with an easy fix for it, of course.

Well, as I said this is just my opinion, and I'm not really sure about what I'm speaking, so I think I'll just stop following this now and leave it for someone else that knows more about this subjects.

If you have any other idea on how to fix this, let us hear it :).
