Openbox will enable those two features, although you'll have to install a 
(mouse enabled) web browser (eg firefox) and text editor (eg gedit/nano) 
as openbox doesn't come with any programs, it's just a program to control 
windows/menus.

I certainly find openbox quick enough.

P.S. see http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/xwtf.html for more reading on 
window managers (like openbox) and desktop environments (like GNOME/KDE 
etc).
