bug#55306: 27.1; How to add face attribute (:box) only on the left/right?

Hi, I'm trying to add some left/right padding in the tab-bar-tab and
mode-line-buffer-id.

I tried adding the :box attribute the tab-bar-tab and the
mode-line-buffer-id faces, but it just lets me add a border on all four
sides - I want only on the left/right.

I also tried to add like this: (:box (:line-width (2 . 3))) for vwidth and
hwidth, but it seems to be invalid.

Besides that, on the mode-line-buffer-id the left side border simply
doesn't appear.

What can I do to achieve what I want?

Thanks!

This is supported in Emacs 28.1 and later, so you will need to
upgrade.

You can, but only in Emacs 28.

So there doesn't seem to be anything to be done here, if I understand
correctly, and I'm therefore closing this bug report.
