[Catalyst] Suggested minor fixes for Catalyst error output

I tried knocking up a patch using the NiftyCorners code as suggested (
http://pro.html.it/niftycube/) and though it appears to work it's massive. I
took everything that was needed from the source and put in it Engine.pm and
it's really bloated. See border_js.diff for the nastiness in all its glory.

So given that the suggested JS solution is too big (+300 lines in Engine.pm)
and other JS solutions are also likely to be massive maybe the corners
should just be removed. border_no_corners.diff should take care of this.
