Hi, do you know the hardware-monitor applet? I've extended this applet to have exactly this feature. It shows in the tooltip processes which consume lot's of cpu or memory ressources. But because I'm not a gnome/gtk programmer I couldn't get "kill" buttons into the tooltip. If you are interested I can post the patched version of this applet. But this applet still has one problem: It fails to run/compile on Jaunty because of depencies to old libs. But if you use Intrepid you will have no problems.
