This is an idea set off by this discussion:
https://github.com/Alexander-Miller/treemacs/issues/242#issuecomment-753296634

Basically the problem is that child frames need a distinct border colour
to be properly visible (and just using a different background colour does
not look nearly as good).

That can be achieved by customising the `internal-border' face, however
that face controls the appearance of the border of all frames, and as I
have learned there is a non-trivial amount of users who by default use a
large internal border as a margin for their frames. And for these users
the `internal-border' should have the same colour as the default
background.

So there is a conflict between wanting a distinct border colour for
child frames and using the default background for normal frames.

Packages can work around that individually, for example posframe accepts
an `internal-border-color' argument that overrides the `internal-border'
face frame-locally. But that still means that every package using child
frames needs its own user option for the child frames' border colour
when such matters clearly belong under the domain of the user's theme.

I think that since child frames serve sufficiently distinct use cases
than normal frames it makes sense for them to have their own border
appearance controls.
