It may be all well and good that IE and Opera exhibit similar behavior to what
happens with this "feature", but on some level, isn't this supposed to be about
building a better browser? I think the point the Unsightly One is making is
that, regardless of how other current browsers behave, isn't it most intuitive
for the default printing action of a browser when confronted with a page laid
out in frames to just go ahead and print out the whole page, including every
frame? If someone wants to print specific frames or what amounts to a
screenshot, have them be the ones who have to go digging in the print options.
