 * (Aura Designer) Text-only icons no longer draw a leftover border (static or expiring). (by Krathe)
 * (Aura Designer) Aura icon and square borders from older profiles keep their original look after the border rework, instead of appearing thinner or floating in a gap. (by Krathe)
 * (Buff/Debuff) Icon borders from older profiles no longer float in a gap after the border rework — they hug the icon as before. (by Krathe)
+* (Pinned Frames) Pinned frames now reappear when you zone into a battleground or arena, instead of staying hidden until a `/reload`. (by Krathe)
