This is not strange, this is in agreement with the latest Working Draft on Frames [1]. The answer to your request is at the end of the DTD: <!ENTITY % html.content "HEAD, FRAMESET?, BODY"> Which means authors can provide a whole BODY for user agents that don't support frames. In addition, NOFRAMES can be used inside BODY for content to be only rendered by user agents that do not support (or simply do not use) frames, giving even more control.
