I forgot to add -- the point I originally thought this docstring needed
to make was that FRAME will not be selected when the hook runs, and it 
is
up to the function to select it if required.

I'd be inclined to have the docstring suggest that the following be used
in that scenario:

(with-selected-frame FRAME
   ...)

This is rather more apparent when one looks at the documentation for
`make-frame' itself, but people won't necessarily feel the need to do
that; and while one can *guess* that this may be the case from the fact
that FRAME is being passed to the hook at all, I think it would be 
better
to make it explicit in the hook documentation.
