I'm not worried that Recapture doesn't add the bindings. In fact, if
the modified mouse keys are bound to fvwm functions and a window has
somehow escaped the bindings, Recapture puts them into effect.
What I'm concerned about is that executing
Bind Mouse 1 A C Iconify
and then
Bind Mouse 1 A C -
prevents applications from getting control-button-1 events when I push
the button in the application's window. On the other hand, a window
created after the command sequence does get those events. The
documentation that's concerning me is:
Mouse Button Context Modifiers Function
Defines a mouse binding, or removes the binding if
Function is '-'.
It seems to me that if the binding is removed the application should
see the events. This isn't explicitly stated there, but it seems
intuitive to me, and the inconsistency between a window that has its
bindings removed and one that is created after they are removed
distresses me.

If I get time to code dive, I'll start there, thanks.
