How many types of frames are there?  Just two (GUI and text)?  For
just two, it could be that a user could customize each one fairly
easily.  Make two files, .emacs.gui and .emacs.text, then have .emacs
choose to load one or the other of those two.  Then put the
customization for GUI terminals into .emacs.gui and that for text
terminals into .emacs.text.

It's not super-clean but it may be good enough.
