I see the same question, unanswered too, here: https://musescore.org/en/node/54191
In the handbook, it is written: " Notes: (1) "Left Gap" and "Right Gap" are currently unallocated (version 2.1) "
In fact, I do not see it working in all previous 2. versions, and betas versions, and before, until May 2014.
So, I do not know what these left/right gaps were supposed to change regarding horizontal frames.
Postponed feature or other reason? Mystery.

Ok, so, I would say rather "postponed status", since, good news, it works with the current 3.0 dev.
As their name indicate, It allows to add space to the left and right of horizontal frames.

Mystery to me too. Since the frame itself is essentially a gap, what could be a possible use of an ability to adjust the left/right gap which couldn't be handled by simply increasing the frame's width?
I can think of one possible situation where the additional properties of left/right gaps would be useful, and that is if there is the ability to make text wrap inside frame and wanted a little margin around that wrapping text.
For instance if had some text that excedeed width:
Then maybe could set wrapping flag, in which case text would automatically wrap when exceed width:
