FVWM: Forcing FVWM to pass all key/mouse events to a program.

Hello,

I have recently switched to FVWM2, and am a fan so far. I like the
ability to configure practically everything.

I often run an X-session over VNC (server and client both run on Linux
machines), and would like for FVWM to ignore all of my key/mouse
events when the mouse is over (or focus is on) the VNC client's
window. IOW, I want FVWM to pass those events on to the window,
usually because I want the FVWM running over VNC to receive them.

Is there any way to accomplish this? I looked in the manpage, and saw
the mention of this in the section on ICCCM compliance--it looked like
I might be up the creek without a paddle. :) I just wanted to make
sure before I gave up.

Thanks, and please be sure to CC me, as I'm not a member of the list.
Ben

P.S.
I tried searching the list archives, but every search I performed
turned up 0 results--even when my only keyword was fvwm! I assume it
is temporarily broken?
