It emerges incidentally from necessary assumptions. Specifically the
assumption that all elements besides head, body, and html belong either in
the head, or in the body, or can be in either.

Not terribly, but I'll give it a try. In the meantime, yes, try moving
things around to repair the tree. Presumably it's just a matter of finding
the body, finding the frameset under that, moving it up to be body's
sister, and then demoting body to... be inside the noframe element inside
the frameset (or make one if none there?).
