I just found myself wondering if it was possible to do a specific thing
in FvwmPager, which on reading the manpage doesn't appear to be
currently possible, and going on to ponder whether it would be a good
idea for a Future Feature.

Basically, what I want to do is conceptually quite simple:  In the same
way that I can tell fvwm that a window matching "Mozilla*" should have a
specified style, I want to tell FvwmPager to use different colors for
different windows, without having to change the colors fvwm itself uses.
Something like, say, this:

*FvwmPager: WindowColors * [colors]
*FvwmPager: WindowColors "*\%*Saved" [different colors]

My intent in this is quite specific.  I want to be able to make specific
windows (even more specifically, Mozilla download windows) highlight in
the pager, but not anyplace else, so that I can see with a glance at the
pager when a download on a different page of the desktop finishes.  So
far, from studying the man pages, I can't see a way to do this except by
assigning those windows their own overall fvwm Style with a different
background color.

Am I overlooking something?  If not, might this be considered as a
future FvwmPager feature?
