I don't really understand the need for this. I always have several
frames in my sessions, each one with its buffer, and when I restore
the sessions, each frame comes up with the same buffer it had when I
shut down Emacs, no complicated frame-walking dance necessary, neither
before shutting down Emacs nor after restarting it. Maybe this stuff
you do is the culprit?
