I don't see an easy way to do it currently. But you may write a small
fvwm module in Perl yourself that does Move to a position that you think
is good near the parent, or even just a shell script with FvwmEvent.
Some ideas (not a ready sample):
parent_id=`xprop -id $[w.id] | grep WM_TRANSIENT_FOR | awk '{print $5}'`
WindowId $[parent_id] Echo $[w.x] $[w.y]
