hide_edge_borders both does not appear to apply to i3 status bar.

Piping colored conky text into i3bar, works wonderfully, but this pointless border around the status bar is driving me nuts, help! ;-)

Just to clarify, as soon as you set the colors block an unwanted border appears:

bar{
  output xinerama-1
  position bottom
  mode dock
  workspace_buttons no
  tray_output none
  status_command ~/.i3/conky.sh

  # comment out below and no border
  colors {
    background #ffffff
    statusline #000000
  }
}

So how to make i3 not add a border when supplying custom colors block??

There is a 1 pixel border around the i3bar that is the same color as the i3bar, regardless of whether you set the colors block or not.
