I can confirm that appending from the separator is fixed (thank you!).
Prepend is still "missing" from the Edit menu.

Understood, and my thanks again for your work to get everything functional
and consistent.

As I see it, the remaining actions are not yet working:

   - Prepend from separator (missing menu entry).
   - Append from frame (misbehavior as you described).
   - Append from within the frame.  I can't recall if I demonstrated this
   in my video, but it splits the current frame rather than inserting a new
   frame after the current one.
   - Prepend from within the frame (no menu entry).

For the final two points, create a frame with three itemize items.  I would
expect that if my cursor is within the second item, I could prepend before
the current frame or append after it, without modifying the current frame.
Does this seem sensible?

Thanks,
Joel
