Yes, now it works. So you replaced $[w.screen] with ... something as I see
in git diff. Is it [c]urrent or is it aware if it should start on exact
screen?

Indeed it is. I can imagine after-pandemic situation where I go with
notebook someware and connect it to monitor "DP-2" and this does not
work because "DP-2" is not "DVI-I-1" nor HDMI1 ...

I can imagine some translation table, where all non-primary monitors
may be referred as left, top, right or bottom. StartsOnScreen p+1
for "right of primary" or p-1 for left and so on should be portable
in a sense "ok FVWM, when there is setup where you have someting
right of primary, do this with that window".
