Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I wish the console area had a border, it think it would help its integration with the gui.

Here's a link to a mockup I made

I think it makes konsole look better, what do you think?

I get the following error following the link you posted.  

"403 Forbidden.  You don't have permission to access /konsole.png on this server."

Please attach the image to the bug report.

I agree that the mockup with the frame does look better with white background and the current version of the Oxygen style.  I personally (and others) do not like frames however and I wanted a 'flat' look for the terminal without any visual clutter around the outside - I went to some lengths to get rid of it in fact.  With a dark background (which is primarily what I designed for) it looks fine without a frame.
