Changes (by ross):

  * type:  defect => enhancement


Comment:

 Frames aren't intended to work on hackage, which is why the Frames button
 is disabled.

 The issue is that the Haddock documentation is generated using --use-
 contents to redirect the Contents link to the package page, but this also
 turns off generation of index.html and index-frames.html:

 http://projects.haskell.org/pipermail/haddock/2010-September/000687.html

 (containers has them because the docs were copied from a GHC release.)
