Yes, this is the only relable place for such questions.

Do not IconFore and IconBack as specified in the man page work for you?
I would suggest to use colorsets instead to specify any colors in FVWM.
Then you may share them among different modules.
# tips/balloons in modules
Colorset 16 fg black, bg bisque
# standard item
Colorset 17 fg black, bg #c0c0c0 # optionally use Pixmap here
# active item
Colorset 18 fg white, bg blue3, hi #40b0f0, sh navy
# iconified item
Colorset 19 fg black, bg grey51
# pointed item (only relevant for FvwmIconMan, not FvwmTaskBar)
Colorset 20 fg black, bg #c0c0c0
*FvwmTaskBar: Colorset 17
*FvwmTaskBar: FocusColorset 17 # or 18
*FvwmTaskBar: IconColorset 19
*FvwmTaskBar: TipsColorset 16
*FvwmIconMan: Colorset 12
*FvwmIconMan: PlainColorset 17
*FvwmIconMan: FocusColorset 18
*FvwmIconMan: IconColorset 19
*FvwmIconMan: SelectColorset 20
*FvwmIconMan: FocusAndSelectColorset 20

I don't think there is a way except for changing the sources.
In FvwmButtons in 2.5.2 you may use ActionOnPress option for this.
After all FvwmTaskBar may be emulated using FvwmButtons that swallows
FvwmIconMan and some other buttons.
