You are right, it is a tricky thing currently. Here is what happens.
This parameter is thought as a timeout by FvwmAuto, and since it is not a
number a timeout of 0 is assumed (we do our own timeout using Schedule).
But this "timeout that is not a number" string is not ignored by fvwm,
it uses heuristics and takes it as a module alias.
So you may to have several FvwmAuto running and kill them independently:
Module FvwmAuto FvwmAuto-Beep -mfocus Beep
Module FvwmAuto FvwmAuto-Raise -mfocus Raise
# then after you find the first annoying, kill it only
KillModule FvwmAuto FvwmAuto-Beep
So currently you may have either a non-zero timeout or an alias, or
FvwmAuto may be enhanced to support both. In the future there will be the
global non-tricky solution for module aliases in the core.

Yes, the Dominik's solution requires that a small frame square of 10x10
(with NoTitle, BorderWidth 5) is visible. Try: "WindowShade NW" on any
window. You may setup this 10x10 pixel frame to be always OnTop.

Mikhael.
