 In virtual machines like VMWare, "unity" mode with the mouse means that
 it's impossible to hit the edge of the screen long enough to open the
 frame.

 There is also no Frame key like on the XO to open it manually.

 Even on the XO, it's annoying that the frame key is on the right - if you
 are using the mouse, you have to reach your left hand across to hit it.

 I propose that double Ctrl tap bring up the frame.  This is the same key
 bound to Google Desktop, and bringing up the frame is kind of like
 bringing up Google Desktop widgets.  Also the Ctrl key is easily
 accessible to the left hand.
