Would it be possible to propose a simple measure of frame complexity, E.G. a frameset is too complex if (1) it includes more than two frames, and (2) the contents of at least two of these frames do not remain constant (in other words, at least two frames are referred to in TARGET attributes somewhere in the collection of documents to which the frameset applies). NOFRAMES is priority 1 for complex frames, priority 2 otherwise. The essence of this approach is to set a determinate upper limit on frame complexity, based on our assessment of what is readily navigable and comprehensible when frames are treated as links in a serial medium such as audio. The above example of a complexity definition is just an illustration and has not been based on any research (obviously the working group would need to agree upon a definition if this solution were adopted).
