Fvwm implements page numbers by putting windows of high x/y
coordinates. For example, if you have a 1024x768 destop and you
view page 0 0, a window on page 1 1 has x = x_on_that_page + 1024
and y = y_on_that_page + 768. In other words: you don't even
have to think about page numbers in a session manager, you get
that for free.
