For. If you need to link directly to something then you can get a helper frame that will do just that for you.
Frames will give you a return for effort. They do require a little more effort, but waiting at the end is an efficient user experience that is potentially faster and more usable. Like always, it's a trade-off. But I have to say, is that if anyone complains about frames, it's probably because they haven't done any _real_ work with them in a large application, and so don't know how to take advantage of them (I'm talking more than just little menus on the left). So it means that it will all end up in a pile of poop along with all the complaints of making someone do what they don;t want to do. So therefore in your instance, you should probably avoid them.
