Nope - sorry. And it won't be until after the first official release
most likely. I'd much rather get some bugs fixed and docs cleaned up
first.

Nope, not yet. See above comment. Unless someone else wants to take
a stab at this module sooner.

We've discussed this here before, but I guess I should put this in the
FAQ as well.
Making fvwm generate ButtonPress events is ok in theory, but a lot of
applications ignore events marked SYNTHETIC, which these would be. If
I get a chance, I'll experiment with it, but I can't promise anything
(it is on the TO-DO list, BTW).
I hate making all these negative responses, so I'd better redeem
myself with a positive one: If you'd like to do cut-n-paste via
keystrokes though, you can do that now via xcb. Grab it from
ftp.x.org or your favorite mirror.

What URL? It was missing from the note and I'd be curious to see it.
