That given, you can still very refer to "location" in a Web-based
application. In fact, people often refer to "navigating" around a Web site,
and I believe that people often think of a Web-based app as a Web site.

Since a thing in a browser is a thing in a browser is a thing in a browser,
I would think you can use browser language. Hence, "page" or "frame".
