1) Openbox doesn't hang while apps you launch are running, that would 
probably be annoying.
2) gvim automatically forks itself when launched so it's impossible to 
wait for if we wanted (by default)

However:
<command>gvim -f -geometry 120x50 .config/openbox/menu.xml && openbox --reconfigure</command>
              ^^                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
