Attached is a bash script 'desktop-pids' which prints the PIDs of all 
processes running in the current desktop. I hacked it in rather quickly 
and without much testing, so there is no guarantee for anything. The command

    kill $(desktop-pids)

should do what you want. You could assign it to an icon in the task bar. 
I'm going to write a more generic version of this script and put it on 
my homepage the next days.

Hope it helps,
Bernd
