>Postscript level 3 printers boast the ability of "Direct consumption of PDF files up to PDF version 1.5". 

Some do. It's an optional feature, not much taken up.

>Why is it then not possible to have a Postscript frame around PDF pages? 

Because that wasn't what was designed. Nice idea, but it didn't
happen.  

It's unlikely Adobe are to do more, since the licensing of the PDF
feature was (it seems to me without the benefit of inside information)
disappointing.
