Thanx Jakob. I've learnt this trick too, but I forgot to mention it. :-]

Yeah but these days I would forego the actorList and rather create a
timeoutobject calling back to the object that needs regular
frame-events, like so:
--timeOut(Name).new(period, timeOutHandler <,targetObject>)
timeOut(me && "eventRelay").new(0, #dummy, me)
This would never actually send back any timed messages, but would
relay all the cyclic frame-events to the object.
So you could use prepare/enter/exit-frame as you desire.
