Do you mean you will prefer that the help appear in a separated
window?
Does the color selector work normal or a click on the first 3
palette does not change the last one as before?

What do you mean?

This is not normal. Only the applications which is on your path
should appear in the "Program", "System" and "Shells" menu.
Can you login as the user whose type "make install" and type:

fvwm-themes-menuapp --site --build-menus --remove-popup

Do you have strange message around when you make install 

if test "yes" = "yes"; then \
        a_path/fvwm-themes-menuapp --site --build-menus --remove-popup; \
fi

when you make install? Is the above sh test ok?

This will be fixed when we will update fvwm-themes for
wm-icons-0.3.0 (which will be not needed, but if you like
mini-icons I think you will like it).

Yes, this is the main fvwm-themes problem. We work on minimal
reloading and you can try it via the Themes Management menu:
     Refresh and Reload -> Use experimental reloading
This can, under certain situation, speed up the switching, but
the method is not yet fully implemented.
You can also use the Themes Center GUI (Fvwm Configuration) which
allows to do several change and then apply it (Does this
FvwmScript work fpr you?).
