This could easily be achieved with Guile's procedures with setters:

  (define border-with (make-procedure-with-setter border-width-getter
                                                  border-width-setter))

Maybe there are more standard or more goopsish ways to do that, though
(however, `set!' is *not* a generic function in GOOPS so this probably
isn't feasible in pure GOOPS as you said).
