Me too!
Maciek> X11 binds Windows keys as Super modifier,
Only for recent versions of XFree86. With previous versions, I needed
to modify the config files to do that. And there isn't too much
well-formed documentations for configuring the sophisticated 'xkb'
system.

Me too! And I've been doing it for some 8 years!
And I also bind the otherwise useless "Pause" key on PC keyboards. ;)

Well... few applications use the Super modifier in the default
configuration. So, it doesn't hurt to reserve it for FVWM.

Yeah. It takes may be a few hours to read the FVWM man page and 1 or
2 more hours to try out the combinations that I like. But I've done
this just twice or thrice (when I upgrade to a new version of fvwm and
want to enjoy the new features) in the past 8 years. So, it's only
maybe 20 hours in 8 years. The gained productivity of course pays
that off.
