mmh, it would seem to me that what you want is having a minimum size on an 
entire frameset, no? (because a root frameset is always sized to the viewport 
dimension anyway, so you would not be able to scroll).

If so, all you need is to patch RenderFrameSet::layout()'s first lines either 
to set m_height = max(your-hardcoded-minimum-height, viewportHeight), or to 
honour a css specified setting from the default stylesheet through a call to 
calcHeight(), but that might allow too much... so you should restrain 
m_height again afterward, e.g
calcHeight;
m_height = kMax(m_height, theViewportHeight)

also, you should probably fix khtmlview to allow srollbars on framesets... I 
think we turn them off always in this case.
