Go to my site using FF or Moz and simply navigate across any of the
pages...click on the BACK button and notice how the titles only appear for the
frame itself?  This negates that feature because if you wanted to go back to say
Gamer music and you were in the Philosophy section you'll have to do that
manually... kinda trivial but still it seems like it's a feature that would one
day be nice to have...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to a site with frames, like mine.
2. Browse through pages inside that frame..
3. Click on forward or back button drop down to see titles of pages...

Actual Results:  
Only the frame title appears instead of the individual page titles.

Expected Results:  
Pages navigated within a frame should have their titles in the drop down of the
navigation bar.

I think my English teacher is HOT!

This is very annoying. Even in a site with carefully written TITLEs, you have no clue which to choose from your history!

I have created a test page for this:
http://musiphil.bawi.org/test/frame_title/
where the frameset has the title "frameset" and each frame page has "body: seq=#" where # increases as you navigate through the links.

Hope to see this fixed soon. Thanks for the efforts!
