Actually, "-" is a builtin prefix.
So it is a bit problematic to have a function named "-" or "-abc".

And it causes a real problem with FvwmPerl and some other modules.
Dominik, is it possible to use "=" as a prefix if we are at it.
At least "=" is not used as a start of an option. Consider this:

  Module FvwmAuto -passid -raise -lower

Is "-raise" an option or an fvwm command that should not be expanded?
