I'll upload the source in a few hours (sorry, I won't be able to get to my computer before then) but all the program does is get the X11 root window, get the value of the "_MB_CURRENT_APP_WINDOW" property and get the value of the "_NET_WM_PID" property using the XID given by the current app window property.

Actually its not systemui that kills the task (its run as user, it doesn't have privileges to do it), but window manager. Why it takes so long to kill something (and some cases fail) is it plays ping-pong with target app with WM_PINGs and only non responding apps get booted.
This is revised in upcoming service release and SIGKILL is used to guarantee killing is done properly.

Although you do raise a good point about being root... Maybe I should make top_killa setuid...

Thanks for the source, qwerty12.
Also, just to report that I've installed this as indicated and tested it (once! on the browser) with every indication of success.
Also: great app name

Hi!
I have a self-made application that doesn't get the "End current task" onto the power-switch menu. Because of that, it failed Ovi-testing (plus one another problem). How do I get the menu item for my X-Window application?

Abusing systemui's ability to run processes via D-Bus, this program will kill the program which has its toplevel window on the screen.
1. gunzip top_killa.gz into /usr/bin
2. Put the following into /usr/share/dbus-1/services/com.qwerty12.top_killa.service:
