I guess that's an issue if the frame names are common things like "main" and
"display" and "gunkie_foo".  :-)  What happens when the frame name contains,
say, the site's name as a prefix?


It's really no biggie; I can browse the new format just as happily.  But I
was just thinking that, since it's in a script already, it'd be pretty
trivial to wrap a hyperlink around the set title and number when you wrap
it around the set images.

It would be trivial, yah, but when it was like that a while back, it really
was less readable -- too darn bright.
