I actually did use back to back FR once, as I needed to fragment on a
slow circuit to maintain decent VoIP quality. But it's pretty rare to
have to do so.

I suppose the back to back frame is more or less of frame relay without
a real frame relay infrastructure?

Clearly, not a real life need. Why deal with frame when you can just
run HDLC or PPP accross straight circuit? :)
