I think so. But I also think that the currently highlighted frame is
mostly identical to the selected frame, except when minbuffer-only
frames are in use. And recall that the problems with mismatches
between the selected window and the selected frame, which started all
this quest for having them in sync, and introduced assertions whose
violations are being reported ever since, happen precisely in
configurations where the minbuffer is a separate frame.

Maybe, but that could be a surprise to users, who are used to
different behavior.
