X runs every application in your init file, the last application (usually) is
the one that causes X to exit. So if you exit blackbox, you exit X. You can
add a window manager to blackbox's menu and have it set to 'Restart' to that
window manager.
[restart] (Window Manager name here) {binary name here}
