There are multiple ways to insert a frame. One is to put the cursor at 
the end of the contents of frame 1 (/not/ the separator line) and click 
Insert > Separated Frame Below. With my setup, the keyboard shortcut is 
Alt+P Return, but your mileage may vary. You can also start from frame 2 
and use Insert > Separated Frame Above.

A while back, I added a keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+Return) mapped to 
the command "call newframe". That also works like a charm.
