I definitely agree that we need better multi-screen support... preferably
in a fashion that doesn't require spawning a copy of fvwm2, FvwmAuto,
FvwmIconMan, FvwmButtons, FvwmPager, etc. FOR EACH SCREEN like it does
now. The ctwm window manager handles this very elegantly, and if we are
going to look anywhere for a "model" that is the place to do it. I'd be
happy to help test for sure, and even write code. I'm no eX11pert, but I
can hold my own when it comes to regular C programming...
