I've heard of a couple of things of interest.  One is "SloppyFocus", 
which is sort of the next generation of Focus Follow Mouse.  If your 
mouse goes out of the window onto, say, the root window, your window 
stays focused.  This also applies to putting your mouse on a non-input 
sort of thing like xclock, I believe.  

One other thing I believe you can have (but haven't seen) is icons in the 
click-to-pull-down menus.  I think.

Drawbacks?  The sucker is HUGE.  Fvwm has the feature of not taking a lot 
of memory, I understand they fixed that bug in V2.0.
