Thanks

Yes it seems that an Iframe is a good way out of the PCI/PA-DSS problem. If you look at the UK payment gateway sapepay, they have a Iframe interface (called their "Server" interface) and they describe it as their most secure interface.

I suspect that the iframe injection situation will only be a problem here IF browsers start to have an option to block iframes.
