We have a patch that's been submitted to improve the wait logic for 
nested frames. Perhaps you could add that patch while you are looking at

http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-107

Do you think your changes will be compatable with this patch?

BTW, where would you draw the line between download and rendor in doing 
this? Will this work for framed pages?
