SUMMARY

It would be nice to have an option to make the new window outline optional. It is a nice feature for some use cases (e.g., dark themes), but there are other scenarios in which it creates visual noise (e.g., light themes with only a few dark windows, such as konsole).

Also, it is kind of confusing with the general option "Window border size" = "No borders" within "Window Decorations". I know technically this new feature is not a border but an outline of another element, but the problem is most users don't understand the difference.

This has already been done for Plasma 6.0. Unfortunately we cannot backport it to 5.27.x because it's technically a new feature with new translated strings.
