If people want frame-like behavior (i.e., have toolbars, menubars,
tear-off "windows"), then IMHO the easiest way to implement that is
using "real frames". But please don't misread my opinion as "suggestion".

A point of my proposal was to the keep the "auxiliary thingies inside a
single frame" and to change the C code. OTOH I believe that
implementing framelets via separate frames would still give Emacs "some
hope of keeping control over their placement" (just as Emacs is able to
control placement of the Speedbar).
