I was having hard time getting Framed to accept a FrameStyle, then I
saw this message below from 2 years ago.

Is this still a bug in Mathematica?

It seems that there is a bug with FrameStyle in Framed. As a
workaround,
you can use Grid instead:

Grid[{{x}}, Frame->True, FrameStyle->Directive[Red, Thick]]

Here is what I was trying to do now using version 7:

Framed[Text["foo"], FrameStyle -> Directive[Dotted]]

Which does NOT work, but the following works

Grid[{{Text["foo"]}}, Frame -> All, FrameStyle -> Directive[Dotted]]

It seems then that this bug with FrameStyle for Framed is not fixed
yet?
