I also use desktop.el, and have for several years. It is primarily
focused on saving the list of buffers with their files, directories,
point and mark and various buffer-local variables. If it can save frame
configs I haven't seen how to do it, but perhaps that would make a good
extension... If I have some more time to spend on this perhaps I will
give it a try.
