What I am suggesting is that perhaps rather than going about it the way
you might originally wish to, you can add a frame at the end, then
insert the table or whatever in the middle, with adjustments in frame
size(s) to accomplish your desired goal. I would think that if you
insert a frame midstream there are going to be unexpected consequences
in spillover anyway.
