In your case StickyAcrossDesks is not an option, since it doesn't have desk arguments.

You can help yourself with FvwmEvent module to observe desk changes. For example:

*FvwmEvent: Cmd
*FvwmEvent: new_desk f_ChangeDesk

And then write some handy function(s):

DestroyFunc f_ChangeDesk
AddToFunc f_ChangeDesk
+ I InfoStoreAdd current_desk $[desk.n]
+ I Test (EnvMatch infostore.current_desk 3) Next (Emulator) MoveToDesk
+ I Test (EnvMatch infostore.current_desk 4) Next (Emulator) MoveToDesk
