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/.
