Hey RJ,

My reasoning is twofold:

1) The cornerstone of Mixx for me is theming. The QT implementation of Mac border focus looks bad if you use any margin. It highlights the margin as well. I don't like things that look bad. :)

2) There is no usability loss as you can define a ::focus style on the element to dictate it has focus. I've attached a photo of my build running an the default deere skin with the focus working by highlighting the box orange. It's still very very clear that the element has focus and it gives the themer more control. I'd even go as far to suspect that if someone really wanted it they could custom add the blue back with some outline rules a la CSS.

As far as I understand, this also makes mixxx theme behavior the same across platforms which as a themer makes me happy.
