I use KDM, and edit /etc/X11/Xsession to run certain apps before it 'exec blackbox'... it's multi-user and multi-WM. If you already have scripts to run each WM, why can't you include the apps you want to start right in those scripts, before the WM is started?? You seem to be asking for BB to run 'startup' apps, when you could simply edit the script that starts Blackbox to include the apps.
