a bit of topic perhaps but something I have been thinking of every time 
people ask me if it's possible to monitor this and that windows 
application is to simply create a plugin wrapper around a mouse/keyboard 
recorder such as www.autohotkey.com. This will let you record whatever 
user behavior and run it as a plugin from nsclient++. You could even 
create a macro starting an rdp session from a windows box :)
