I'll second using Emacs as the primary graphical shell. It shouldn't really be surprising that it's good for that task, since the interface is (or so it seems to me) heavily influenced by Genera's X interface. If Emacs let you display an external program such as Firefox in a buffer, I'd as well do away with Openbox and just run Emacs.
