Want I want to create is a setup where I have a small FvwmButtons (alal
Jarl) at the bottom of my screen.

I want to be able to click on a button and get a pull-down (up?) menu as
such:

         _________
         | |
         | |
         | |
_________|_______|_____________________________________________________
| |* | | | | | |

But I want my pointer to stay where the asterisk is. I don't want it
instantly warped to the top. Basically, Fvwm already does this with
Pull-downs on Windows. I just want the same to apply to a pull-up
started from a module (such as FvwmButtons).
