BTW, you might want to have a look at Alp Aker's library `frame-bufs.el' (ccing
him):

>From the overview:

Frame-bufs is intended as a convenience for those who like to organize their
workflow in Emacs by using specific frames for different projects.  It extends
Emacs's buffer menu so that it understands a distinction between those buffers
that are associated with a given frame and those that are not.  The buffer menu
can be toggled between a list of all buffers and a list of only those buffers
associated with the selected frame.  The criteria governing which buffers are
associated with a frame can be customized through various options.  In addition,
buffers can be manually added to and removed from the list of buffers associated
with a frame.  The package interacts properly with other-buffer and respects
changes in buffer ordering made by bury-buffer.
