I was about to reply that there is an easy way to do this in fvwm2,
when I decided to check and see if it still works in fvwm 2.1.4 and
discovered that it DOES NOT work in 2.1.4!

What I was using in earlier fvwm2 versions was something that started
like this:

        AddToMenu Window-Ops
        + "Window Ops" Title
        + "Stay" Popup Window-Ops

When clicking on "Stay", the menu would stick around. Sure, it would
disappear as soon as I did anything else, but it would stay around
longer than otherwise. Yes, I know there are other ways to do this,
but my point is that this no longer works. It's broken in my
installation of fvwm 2.1.4.

Has anyone else seen this?
