Yes, I suppose you're right.

Yes. That's a better solution than moving the function call around,
particularly given that there're are only two calls to it, both in
frame.c.
Just one small thing: the name sf is a bad name for a Lisp_Object -
there's a de facto convention in minibuf.c and frame.c that f, sf, and
of, etc are struct *frame's, and selected_frame, frame, etc., are
Lisp_Object's which are frames. In fact sf is used as a struct *frame
elsewhere in minibuf.c.
Let me guess - originally this sf was a struct *frame, but got changed
to a Lisp_Object when it became clear that it was needed to set MB_frame
with. ;-)
