I like Openbox a lot, though I wish it had desktop warping, but since using Debian Etch I cannot get it to work right. Any panel I use, so far I have tried fbpanel and pypanel, seems to swallow any windows permanently. If I minimize a window I cannot click on the button and restore it. I tried compiling the apps myself but nothing seemed to change. Oddly, it is being able to use things like pypanel which is what I prefer about Openbox.
