Ok, so this is solved, too.  Thankyou :-)

Others have also pointed me to

   https://www.fvwm.org/Wiki/Panels/FvwmTaskBar/

and that helped me re-implementing my taskbar, except for the clock dis-
playing the current date as tooltip when hovering the mouse pointer over
it.  Is this still doable?

I use FvwmForm to interactively ask questions  and to interpret the ans-
wers received.  How to do this now?

Erm ... what's the difference between "Killed" and "Dead"?   But more to
the point: How do I achieve the same effect with current methods?

Just because I'll have to change  my configuration files?   No.   But if
Fvwm3 can no longer do things I need and Fvwm2 was able to do, then yes.
