Based on discussion with Simon, the following PR would lead to cases where zoomed-in frame would be unscrollable in certain windows size and might be more dominant cases like mobile devices and since zoom settings are preserved throughout sessions. It would need user education to educate them on how to reset the zoom on such websites.

Currently, all browsers (as far as I tested) leads to this issue where at certain window sizes, the frames on screen might be unscrollable after zoomed-in and leading the websites being unaccessible.

At this time, we need to be conservation in approach and don't want to break the websites with situation, which is not easy to reset. Hence, I am closing my PR and documenting the issue with current approach.

Additionally, 'frameset' are not as popular as other technologies:

So the impact of this world be not significant. Although, this is one example of broken site, where zooming-in leads to 'buttons' (Menu) not being accessible in Safari:
