I already added these to the man page for the next release, basically
taken from the fvwm 1.xx man page:
RandomPlacement causes windows which would normally
require user placement to be automatically placed in
ever-so- slightly random locations. For the best of
all possible worlds use both RandomPlacement and
SmartPlacement.
SmartPlacement causes windows which would normally
require user placement to be automatically placed in a
smart location - a location in which they do not
overlap any other windows on the screen. If no such
position can be found user placement or random
placement will be used as a fall-back method. For the
best of all possible worlds use both RandomPlacement
and SmartPlacement.

Not currently.
