I can't imagine a scenario where I would want to scroll a frame on a
different terminal, so I personally prefer the bug#56160-style
restriction to the current terminal for both its semantic and syntactic
simplicity.

OTOH, the other two approaches preserve established behaviour and also
have the following merits:

1. Ignoring the daemon frame acts as a reminder to review the daemon
   frame visibility issue discussed in bug#27210.

2. Prioritising frames on the current terminal before falling back to
   frames on all terminals, bar the daemon frame, combines the benefits
   of the other two approaches (to an extent) at the expense of greater
   code complexity.

In other words, I defer to others to chime in and/or make an executive
decision. :)

Thanks,
