If you can't control your WM from within Emacs (/me looking at Sawfish
^_^), you can try with http://www.sweb.cz/tripie/utils/wmctrl/, it's a
command line utility that permits to interact with EWMH compatible
window managers, but in the home page FVWM2 isn't mentioned tho.

Another option is to use an X feature (but i don't recall the name
right now), that can simulate user input event on clients, yeah i
know, not so useful...
