Yes, that would be cool. With my setup, there isn't nearly enough room on
those little windows to have both a mini-icon and the icon name. It already
has a way to disable the window labels (by setting the font to none), so
adding a *FvwmPagerShowMiniIcons option should give the user complete
control.

I'll add it in tonight, and post a patch. I'll probably center the icon in the
windows.
