Hi
It's a good idea, since I haven't seen any such program for xfce yet, 
and it's handy to have.
My first question is, will it run as a seperate app, or will it be a 
plugin for the panel? (or both?)
and in the panel case, will there be a possibility to choose how many 
processes are to be viewed (sorting probably by the cpu use percents)
Another thing I think could be usefull would be to show in % how much 
cpu that process uses.
(for example a color bar in the background, behind the name of the proc, 
such that when it's full width, it means 100%)
And about the clicking, maybe not double click, but a middle click?
And then there would be a little menu with info on the process like 
pid/cpu/time/mem/owner and a button to killit and killit -9

So those are my first thoughts about such an app.
Now I'm heading off to svn (as I understand that's where You added it) 
to check it out :)
