+** Add support for child frames on tty
+
+The redisplay part is complete.  The frame-handling part supports
+use-cases like Posframe, Corfu, and child frames acting like tooltips.
+Other use-cases of child frames are not currently supported.  In
+particular, trying to create minibuffer-only child frames on ttys will
+signal an error.
+
+To enable tooltips on ttys, call 'tty-tip-mode'.
+
+The presence of child window support on ttys can be checked with
+`(featurep 'tty-child-frames)'.
+
+Current versions of Posframe and Corfu are known to use child frames on
+ttys if supported.
