------- Comment #4 from ggaren at apple.com  2006-12-22 23:17 PDT -------
It would be trivial to fix this bug by replacing childCount() with a
never-decrementing count of the number of frames that have been added to the
page. In fact, we could gut the whole uniqueChildName function and just use the
count for unique-ing.

Since a page can have a maximum of 200 frames, the count would be (virtually)
guaranteed to be unique.

The only problem is this comment: "Create a repeatable name." Why does the name
need to be repeatable? What does repeatable mean? Using a global count would
give a frame a new name if you removed and then re-added it to the document. So
I don't think that would be "repeatable."

On the other hand, this bug demonstrates that frames *need* to acquire new
names when you remove and then re-add them to the document.
