Fair enough.  Does FVWM have a config option to alter gravity?  The only
thing I saw matching gravity in the man page was 
UseGravity/IgnoreGravity,
which are arguments to MoveByProgramMethod and don't appear to allow
setting the gravity direction.  Nothing matching a search for cardinal
or ordinal directions (North, NorthWest, etc) looked promising either.

I would be a very happy person if I could change gravity, as presumably
that would also alter the tiling direction for new windows. (I'd prefer
bottom to top for the same reasons I want to move the margin of my 
xterm)

That's what I figured was happening, but it's nice to have it confirmed.

That was my fallback plan (which worked as desired).  I was hoping there
was a way do it with just ResizeMoveMaximize.
