Xalf
Xalf is a small utility to provide feedback when starting X11 applications. Feedback can be given via four different indicators: an invisible window (to be used in conjunction with a task pager like GNOME's tasklist_applet or KDE's Taskbar), an generic splashscreen, an hourglass attached to the mouse cursor, or an animated star.

since version 0.4.
Cool!
I'd love to see more integration from within GNOME. (Like a way to select splash, cursor or invisible-window modes using Gnome Control Center :) )
