Customizing faces to get rid of this might seem too radical, so
maybe there should be a lisp variable to control this behaviour?

The customization could have three choices:
  nil - use mode-line face for all mode lines
  t   - use mode-line-inactive for inactive windows
        use mode-line face for active window and window
        that was selected when using the mini-buffer
  other - use mode-line-inactive even for the window that
          was selected when minibuffer is active.

(the last option corresponds to the current behaviour and is my
personal preference!)

When the :box width is specified as -1, you wont gain an extra pixel
by removing the 3d look.
