I agree! I am tented to consider this as a fvwm's bug. Many apps provide
their own icon, but when iconified using fvwm they never show.

What I have in my fvwmrc file is the following

Style "*" Icon unknown.xpm

At least every iconified apps get an icon. But is surely not the one apps'
default one. It is, like Ian said, a pain to have to define an Icon for every
apps I'll ever run.

Nevertheless, fvwm is great! And the Icon are still better looking than in
straight Mwm!! So that's why I'm not complaining to much...

My two cents..
