Package: fvwm
Version: 1:2.5.14-4
Severity: wishlist
Subject says it all: fvwm should support the _NET_WM* properties.
Currently, in ISO-8859-1 locales, when one has (due to a gtk+ bug):
WM_NAME(STRING) = "Bug 160236 - no window title if none of the *_NAME
properties are set - Mozilla Firefox"
_NET_WM_NAME(UTF8_STRING) = 0xe2, 0x82, 0xac, 0x20, 0x2d, 0x20, 0x4d, 0x6f,
0x7a, 0x69, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x61, 0x20, 0x46, 0x69, 0x72, 0x65, 0x66, 0x6f, 0x78
fvwm shows the title "Bug 160236 ..." corresponding to WM_NAME instead
of the one corresponding to _NET_WM_NAME (which has a Euro symbol).

Because fvwm does support the _NET_WM_* stuff:
fvwm (1:2.5.27.ds-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- New extended variable
$[w.visiblename]
- Style matching now honours the window's visible name which
means it can be matched before the real name, hence:
Style $[w.visiblename] Colorset 5
is now honoured. Useful with IndexedWindowName as a style
option.
- New style InitialMapCommand allows to execute any command
when a window is mapped first.
- New option to PrintInfo, "bindings" which prints out all of
the Key, PointerKey, Mouse and Stroke bindings which fvwm
knows about.
- Fixed compilation without XRender support.
- Fixed handling of _NET_MOVERESIZE_WINDOWS requests.
- Fixed a bug in automatic detection mode of the style
MoveByProgramMethod.
- Fixed png detection when cross compiling.
- Fixed keeping fullscreen window mode over a restart.
- The style PositionPlacement now honours StartsOnPage.
- Reset signal handlers for executed modules and programs.
- Try to handle a bug an old version of the EWMH spec by
honouring both, the _NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_HORIZ hint and
the _NET_WM_STATE_MAXIMIZED_HORZ hitn.
- Fix the GNOME location prefix to application .desktop files.
- 'PositionPlacement UnderMouse' now forces the window
on-screen, just like the old UnderMousePlacement style option
used to.

I think your diagnosis is wrong. You are seeing the symptoms,
and there are bugs open:
* #452661 [i| | ] [fvwm] Titlebar can not show all characters
* #488224 [n| | ] [fvwm] Window titles are incorrectly displayed if
fvwm is running in utf-8 locale
I think those bugs cover the symptoms you see, and it has, I
fear. got nothing to do woth _NET_WM_* stuff. I would prefer to track
the problem in the other bug reports.
