Trying to do that _within openbox_ is like cutting the branch on which
you're sitting :-)  But what you could do is write a short script that
first runs openbox, then (after oepnbox exits) pets the display manager
the right way to make it shut down.  (I don't know what that way is
because I don't use a display manager.)  When you have the script, make
_it_ the window manager, instead of openbox.

You know the saying about another level of indirection ...
