No, I don't really want it to affect anything. By reading the source code, I figured out that frames are constructed from DOM elements and it was natural to create another frame for particular DOM element, which will do all necessary logic. Another option was to patch some existing frame and trigger necessary logic when converting html links. I though that adding new frame type with my custom logic is "cleaner" approach.
