Well, I think it's helpful to know the current frame when I switch between
virtual screens. I'm thus against removing the fram indication.

There should however be nothing preventing a virtual screen indication as
well. I thought about changing the frame indicator to something like 

  "3 : Current frame"

where 3 is the virtual screen number (or maybe name??). But I never got to
it.



Also, there is at least one known bug in the vscreen patch. I have not fixed
it as it rarely occurs. If a window present on a another virtual screen than
the present is deleted (by e.g. kill) the current screen may be tainted with
the window that is supposed to replace the deleted one.
Workaround is to switch to another vscreen and back if it occurs.

happy hacking!
