Research direction
Review the Container widget implementation in druid, likely in src/widget/container.rs, to understand how borders are currently drawn uniformly for all sides. To add per side customization, you'll need to introduce new fields for each side's border style and corner radius, then modify the painting logic to apply them individually. Look at similar per side properties in other druid widgets for reference, and check the druid book's styling guide.
