Meet semplice, a distro which does what you want.
The desktop.
-
Openbox rocks.
The semplice desktop is clean. No panel applets, no indicators, just a simple bottom panel with the window list, a tray and a clock. In semplice you won't find any desktop icon - but you can add them by simply editing a configuration file.
-
Dynamic menus.
Semplice uses Alan to improve the user experience. Alan creates the openbox menu on-the-fly. Moreover, it can be translated and dynamic.

Debian.

A rock-solid base.
