If you trim it, which I think would actually be fine to accomplish... a few issues

  1. Are the borders solid or some sort of veneer or hollow core?

  2. Will you lose your mortises for the hinges and door knob hole?

  3. The edges are probably subtly rounded, you'd need to restore that, not too hard to manage with a router, or maybe just sand paper

  1. Borders are solid wood
  2. It hasn't be machined at all, so no mortises and no holes for the knob/latch
  3. I don't have a round over bit with that small of a radius, but i figured I could just plane a small radius easily enough.

I'm hearing some "don't even bother" so it may just come down to whether or not I'm feeeling gutsy enough....
