I'm sorry, I'm really at a loss regarding this jumbo changeset.  Why
exactly does it have to be in Emacs 27?  Child frames were introduced
in Emacs 26, not Emacs 27.

You say that, and I believe you actually meant that, but the code
changes many functions that do affect normal frames, AFAICT.  I don't
see how can we be sure normal frames are not affected.  If you have a
way of showing that convincingly, I'm all ears.

Thanks.
