It was veto'd because the idea really, really sucks when you don't want to edit text properties of a
text frame, or image properties of an image frame.

Say you are setting up sizes, positions, borders, or colours, and then every time you select a new
frame, it goes to the somehow "right" tab when it is not at all the right tab for the purpose at
hand. In a lot of cases, its adding more clicks and more frustration to working.
