In f15 the gnome and xfce window managers both seem to set a window manager hint
that includes the process ID so you can probably get this by running xwininfo
and clicking the suspect window:

$ xwininfo -wm

xwininfo: Please select the window about which you
          would like information by clicking the
          mouse in that window.

xwininfo: Window id: 0x2200005 "bmr@bmr:~"

  Window manager hints:
      Client accepts input or input focus: Yes
      Initial state is Normal State
      Displayed on desktop 0
      Window type:
          Normal
      Process id: 2157 on host bmr.fab.redhat.com
      Frame extents: 1, 1, 28, 2

$ pga 2157
 2157 ?        Sl     0:05 gnome-terminal
24640 pts/0    S+     0:00 grep --color=auto 2157
