Did you ever think of opening multiple viewports in the Sawfish
configuration?  You know, a "virtual desktop" that spans multiple
windows...  Then switch view ports until you see the edge of the
dialog box and resize it...

How about going into the Sawfish controls and looking at the
keybindings for given window manager commands.  Look for something
like "resize" or "move"...

Anyway, you got it to work.  Gratzies
