Correct, but excluding frameset from HTML5 increases the likelihood that
browsers will drop support for the feature.
The spec requires all browsers to support framesets. Look:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/obsolete.html#frames
Notice that this is contained in a section labeled "Requirements for
implementations". Also note that the section is full of requirements
saying "the user agent must". An implementation that does not support
frames is non-conforming. HTML5 requires frame support in user
agents.
This has been stated a number of times before; what part is unclear?
The *only* effect on you if you use frames is that your pages will not
validate as HTML5.
Just for being nitpickinig: This only applies to the frameset document,
which will validate as HTML4 Frameset. The pages contained will validate
as HTML5 (if properly coded, of course). I assume the validator does not
even recognize the fact that a document is part of a frameset.
