Embedded frames are for applets (dead) and JAWT and SWT. I don't see how any of those could use this.
Are you referring to people migrating AWAY from that Xembed stuff *TO* com.apple.eawt ?
I believe that the *very* early days of the macOS port had an X11 option but surely that's all dead and buried (as is com.apple.eawt)
So I can't see how this code is needed or relevant today.
