RTFM. You should be able to this now via a function and the 'None'
directive. The example that shows this in fvwm2.man:
AddToFunc MailFunction "I" Next [$0] Iconify -1
+ "I" Next [$0] focus
+ "I" None [$0] Exec $0 $1
The 'None' line says only do this if no window matching $0 exists.
You should be able to use something like this with FrameMaker.
