The 'm' (for 'mouse relative') bit of the Move command does the
trick:
AddToFunc MyFvwmForm
+ I FvwmForm <options>
+ I Wait <form window name>
+ I Next move m+0 m+0

Simply call 'move m+0 m+0' from FvwmEvent on the new windows.

The 'm' bits in the move command require one of the 2.3.x beta
releases. This is not in 2.2.4.
