I have applied the patch to the latest CVS code. Can you please
make another patch for the NEWS file and modules/ChangeLog?

Works nicely. I noticed a few cosmetical quirks and a real bug:
* When the tip window pops up over such a button, it contains the
text "Click here to start" as if the pointer was over the Start
button. The position isn't correct either. I guess there
should be no tip window at all by default but you can specify a
text to display in the button definition, e.g.
*FvwmTaskBar: Button Icon mini.term.xpm, Tip "Start xterm", \\
Action exec exec xterm
But that's not critical. To reproduce, add
*FvwmTaskBar: ShowTips
to your config file.
* A bug: press a mouse button over one of these sub buttons.
It is then drawn pressed in. Now drag the pointer a bit with
the button still down ==> all parts of the extended start
buttons are drawn pressed in.
* The action is invoked when the button is released, not when
it's pressed as in most other parts of fvwm, e.g. window
titles and FvwmButtons.
* When I use
*FvwmTaskBar: AutoStick
and press the Start button, the task bar vanishes. It's on
neither of my four pages, but it's still in the process list.
