Frames have to be checked so that they are affected by subsequent
operations. If you only select one file, all of its frames will be
checked, so you normally do not have to check or uncheck frames in this
case. If multiple files are selected, only the checked frames are
modified in all files. If you edit the value of a frame, its checkbox
will be automatically set, so you normally do not have to click the
checkboxes in this case. If you want to remove a subset of the frames,
you have to check them before clicking "Remove", and in the same way for
other operations like Copy, Paste, From Tag. If you have to check almost
all frames or only a few frames, you can use the context menu (Select
all/Deselect all).

There is no such thing as frame selection, only the current cell in the
table is highlighted, so you can see which cell has focus or will get
the focus when the table becomes active. You cannot select multiple
frames either. The frame operations Edit, Add and Delete operate on the
current frame, the checkboxes have no meaning for them because they do
not affect multiple frames. As an alternative to checking frames and
clicking Remove, you can put the cursor in the current frame and click
Delete. The frame is deleted and the next frame becomes the current
frame, so you can delete multiple frames with multiple clicks to Delete,
also in multiple files.

Your suggested solution already exists, check the frames and click
Remove.

By the way: It is probably better to report such things directly to
http://sourceforge.net/projects/kid3/. There is a menu Tracker with Bugs
and Feature Requests.
