Doesn't seem to search within frames

[RichardBronosky]

My main reason for wanting this is to search for things in the AWS console. Unfortunately, CloudWatch Logs (and many others) use iframes. Is there a security limitation that would prevent you from accessing frames?

Since frames are deprecated I'm not expecting a fix for this to be a priority, but I can confirm this behavior and provide a minimal test case.

Steps to reproduce:

1. navigate to this frameset demo page: https://www.w3resource.com/html/frameset/html-frameset-tag-example.html
2. search for any text in any of the frames with the Chrome Regex Search extension; e.g.: "THIS IS PAGE ONE"
3. Observe that the extension indicates that there are zero matches as shown in this screenshot:

Expected results:

1. The matching text in the page should be highlighted
2. the extension should show the number of matches.

E.g.: when "THIS IS PAGE ONE" is entered, the text in the first frame should be highlighted and the extension should shows that it is highlighting the first of 1 match.

Would be great to have support for frames. I could not find any extension that does that.
