This is beginning to sound very much like an AutoHide command. Could someone
familiar enough with the code use the underlying ability noted above and
simply its specification and possibly create a true "autohide" command/style ?

It was be ideal to see something along the lines of,

   Style "Fvwm*" AutoHide

BTW: this very much relates to PR#466 in the enhancements branch of FVWM's bug
     tracker.

Thanks
