Absolutely correct description of what it does, and why, but i disagree that 
we should use something that isn't a standard. What we do is save the closest 
match in fo:border plus use the calligra:specialborder to give a more accurate 
description for those who understand it. This way applications that only 
understand the standard will not be hung to dry, while we at least can do 
better.

The additional values are: wave, double-wave, triple-dot--dash, dot-dot-dash, 
dash-largegap, slash
