FVWM: Trouble with libstroke/thumb button

Hi!

After trying out fvwm 2.4.0 a while, I finally came up with a use for
my "thumb button" (Logitech MouseMan+). My thought was that if I have to
press alt to be able to draw a gesture, then I might as well press
ctrl­alt-enter to open a terminal and skip libstroke altogether.
But if I, on the hand, was able to use only the mouse to draw gestures,
then it would suddenly a useful feature.

Enter the "thumb button". Counting the mouse wheel as two buttons, there
was sadly no mouse button left for fvwm to detect (the old X heritage
of a maximum of five buttons). I thought I'd let the program imwheel
map button clicks to keystrokes for me. Now we're getting to my
problem.

Mouse 3 W M StrokeFunc FeedBack DrawMotion
StrokeWidth 2
Key Home A CS StrokeFunc FeedBack DrawMotion
StrokeWidth 2 NotStayPressed

Using the alt+mouse3 works great. DrawMotion works and the functions are
run. Using the "thumb key", or pressing "Ctrl-Shift-Home" directly,
only DrawMotion works... _no_ function is run. Appending NotStayPressed
to the alt+mouse3 line works fine, I just click a mouse button after
I'm done with the gesture. No matter what I do after drawing a "thumb
gesture", I can't get a function to launch.

Thoughts anyone?
