A frame is not an iterator, so I don't see a clash unless we want to
turn it into an iterator at some point. Is that what you worry about?

What about "newer" and "older"? Or perhaps just keeping "get_next" and
"get_prev" (though the former has a clearer meaning). In any case, the
"_frame" suffix is redundant.
