The XHTML 1.0 standard depends upon & incorporates the HTML 4.01 standard. That's one reason. As a long-time user, the things that I think would most like to see the Amaya team complete are 1. HTML 4.01/XHTML 1.0 support 2. CSS 1 support 3. Unicode support 4. Annotea 5. MathML support 6. SVG support (that's my order of preferences). There's no need for frames support, as Amaya is not a consumer browser; and anyone who wants Amaya users to see their pages shouldn't use frames anyway (they're bad authoring practice) or should at least provide the "noframes" mechanism.
