ALas, there is no "application_name" column in that table.  But I do like the 
"now()-xact_start" !

(from memory, I might have details wrong here)...

     select now()-xact_start as "Transaction Age", usename, datname, 
procpid, application_name
         from pg_stat_activity where current_query='<IDLE> in 
transaction" order by 1 desc;

that will list the age of those idle-in-transactions, oldest on top.
