I had the very same problem until I cam across Launch4j (http://launch4j.sourceforge.net/). It's a great tool and means that you can give all you java applications a custom process name, i.e. no more java.exe/javaw.exe.
The thing to remember is to tick the "Custom process name" tickbox on the first screen (I use version 2.1.5).
Here's the file I used to create jedit.exe...
<launch4jconfig>
<dontwrapjar>false</dontwrapjar>
<headertype>0</headertype>
<jar>C:\Program Files\jEdit\jedit.jar</jar>
<outfile>C:\Program Files\jEdit\jedit.exe</outfile>

<customprocname>true</customprocname>

great news! This would work for me in categorising my Outlook based activity. As a programme manager, that (and web browser based applications) constitutes 90% of my work! Until that is in place, tagging doesn't work for me, as it isn't granular enough. hmm, i'll make this as useful too while I'm here.

It could be convenient to see for how long I was using the current windowI'd like to see how much time I've spent working with the current application. (In case I want to spend only so much time). Maybe this information can be shown in a hint label for RescueTime in task bar? Thanks.

I know it's possible to get a hold of the window title bar information for a window. Often times it has some information that can be used to differentiate between tasks and projects. Maybe the first order approximation would be the ability to have matching strings for the window captions (TimeSnipper uses this approach).
In my case I store documents related to different projects in different directories. Ideally it would be nice if RescueTime could see what the title of a document is:
Proposal.odt - OpenOffice.org Writer
And then it would know that Proposal.odt is under University directory (by scanning directories) and this directory is tagged as belonging to a certain project. This approach does not require plug-ins, but there are could be issues with similar file names and requirement to scan directories periodically.
