    We would like to set up an account with a limited, captive
    environment. Basically we want the account to run an application
    when a user logs into it, and limit the user to only interacting
    with the application program.

    Any ideas, or suggestions about where to look for information on
    doing something like this?


Look into KDE Kiosk mode..  can install kde sys admin tools and do most 
(if not all) configureing gui style... check this out...
