If anyone else is interested in this kind of border handling - this is my patch.
Not quite the same behavior as Sean's - I just wanted to set the border width to zero anytime there was only one client visible, so only need to add two lines to the tile function. I use this on a laptop, but it should work just as well with multiple monitors.
