Framesets were discouraged as far back as HTML4 (which is why there was a special DOCTYPE just for it, so they could restrict them from the main Transitional and Strict DOCTYPEs). There are very good reasons for them being disallowed, which we've talked about before, and very little reason to continue using them. It is not worth the time or effort of this group to attempt to do anything further with them. ~TJ
