That is a great point!
It might be nice to have some sort of indication in the panel (show the 
icon when the app is first executed, and have the color pulse, or 
something)...
As far as the mouse/touchpad pointer that seems like it would be LXDE, 
as the configuration app (not the openbox config, but the 'Customize 
Look and Feel') changes the pointer style....  Just a guess though.
