I think it's worth pointing out that, at least AIUI, frames are currently
a work in progress.

When they "worked", they were provided by the RISC OS front-end and so we
were the only platform to have support.  They are now provided by the
core: this makes them available to all platforms, and simplifies the RISC
OS code significantly (which as anyone who has looked at the code in
question will know, is no bad thing).

AFAIK, the internal APIs for things like scrolling are still being worked
on, so at present support is still less complete (for RISC OS users) than
it once was.  Hopefully this should change over time, rather as the
bookmarks, history and cookies windows returned to normal following their
move into the core a while back.
