You got me, I did just assume. But, for some reason now I'm trying it, I'm not having any joy implementing the patch (the behaviour isn't any different to before - I've tried different weightings). I may have borked some element of my build, so I can't see it.

However, in terms of what I personally want, I'm not so concerned about the border effect, generally I tend to use the plastic theme more as a "soft" gtk, i.e. without the black borders. However, you are right to point out that, in spirit, removing it completely is not very "plastic"-y. But I think that just lends more weight to the user specified degree of "plastic-averaging" that can be altered from the default value.

The idea of such a possibility in the gleam theme looks good too.

The gleam theme might also benefit from such a user adjustable parameter.  It would be nice to control the amount of glint.
