Thanks for the bug report, Rupert. This is clearly a bug in the remove
frame code. The reason we even *have* these kinds of bugs is because I
implemented frames as a flat list and not a tree (which splits
are). If it was a tree then removing a frame would straight forward
and not so awfully error prone.

Uhm...so yeah. Bugs. Definitely bugs. Expect fixes to be
forthcoming...
