I wonder how this is supposed to work, is there a description available? Just making frameset combinations addressable is insufficient, search engines would need to determine what combination suits best for their users and that requires rather complex heuristics if at all possible, since search engines don't necessarily index all documents of a given site required to determine the best combination and they don't necessarily update them fast enough if the best combination changes through time. I think it would be way more simple and reliable if XHTML 2.0 would provide means for authors to specify the best combination of frames, e.g. through a <link rev='frameset' href='foo#xframes(...)' />.
