Well, there's the xselection program, which can perform operations on the
current selection or one of the cut buffers. If you can have it called upon
a middle-click on the title bar, you should be able to do any processing
you want. Of course, this doesn't actually paste anything into the
enclosed window; that's probably way out of the scope of the window manager.

I doubt this has enough to do with Fvwm to be built into it.
