What type of construction follows "I wonder"?  For example:

I wonder if he will remember me.

The clause appears to be subordinate, but it certainly isn't prototypical:
It cannot be moved, and it appears to be functioning nominally, an option I
didn't think was available to subordinate clauses.

Thanks in advance,
John
