A friend just loaned me a copy of "Pastel" by Daniel Greene. On page 151 it says: "I consider mats an extension of the background which can add area and continue color, or produce an enclosing color contrast. My inclination is to omit mats altogether, since the frame can do these beneficial things as well."
There is an entire chapter at the end of the book which discuses frames, mats, glass etc.
