Except that because components are drawn by the widgetset, which
doesn't support this no-borders at least in the case of Windows, you
sure can offer this property, but then you need to have 2
implementations for the same control.

The correct TNotebook can be implemented purely in LCL code, so not
that much work in maintaining it.

Only if you draw everything yourself like in fpgui. With the LCL
design and the limitations of widgetsets this isn't true.
