The behaviour I would like is the following:

I want all icons to be sticky, but windows should be
de-iconified to their original positions.

For example, say I have netscape on page 3. I iconify
it. I move to page 1. I want the netscape icon to follow
me to page 1. But when I de-iconify netscape, fvwm should
take me back to page 3.

A combination of StickyIcons and StubbornIcons gave me
this behaviour with fvwm1.24r. I haven't been able to
figure out how to get this with fvwm2.4.15.

Right now, I'm looking at the man pages for IconBox and
IconMan to see if I can use those modules to get what I
want.
