I'm suspecting something like this, yes.

I'll try this, but will not have time this next week.

Set your .xsession or whatever so that it runs eg. fvwm in the
backround, then xsm as session program.
Then when you run session-aware programs, you should see them in the
window open when you click on "client list" in the xsm button. This
includes at least xterm, xemacs, galeon, xchat - I guess all gnome and
kde programs should be seen as well.
