Custom launchers in Gnome panels?

Anyone know a quick (say, 15 minutes or less) way to kluge up a custom
launcher application for a Gnome panel?  Something with a small edit box
is all that's needed.

There's a little capplet called "webcontrol" which ships with RHL6.1 which
is *almost* exactly what I need, but I can't seem to locate its source code
anywhere (it seems to be part of some larger package (what package, I have
no idea) rather than being its own package).  If I can find that somewhere,
I can hack it to do something more specialized.
