FVWM: Window placement within defined area

Hello,

I am curious whether it is possible to tell FVWM to position all new
windows within a certain bounds, like you can do with icons in an iconbox.

The reasoning is that I have one large desktop (1952x868) that covers
two monitors (for reasons I've explained in other messages - I won't
drag them up again ;) ), so AFAIK none of the normal
StartsOnPage/Desk/Screen would work for me.

I'd like to have all new windows pop up on the first monitor, which has
the left most 1152x868 of the desktop. Is that possible?

I realise it's probably not a common problem, so I won't be too
surprised if FVWM doesn't do this.

Cheers,

Andy
