FVWM: Gnome, sawmill and FVWM

All,

I've been a FVWM user since before version 1.24r.

For the past month I've been using Gnome with (I hate to say it) Sawmill as the
WM.

While Sawmill is very nice (you can set everything via an interface with Gnome)
it lacks the dexterity that I've been able to accomplish with FVWM. It does
have an advantage setting curtain style settings via a GUI. It's pretty nice.

I am using version 2.3.16 of FVWM and I have been able to run FVWM with no
apparent major problems in Gnome (I do have some small ones that are probable
loser errors). I do however have a couple of questions.

Does anyone know if the Gnome panel can dock/swallow FVWM's pager?

Will FVWM ever give the user the ability to "Modify" FVWM's settings (Styles,
TitleStyles, etc...) via Gnome? While I don't mind doing things by hand, I have
users who prefer a GUI interface to these things.

Any FVWM/Gnome pointers would be greatly appreciated.
