I use a similar approach, but ask the user if the WM termination was intended:
xterm -e tail -F ~/.wmii/wmiirc.log &
while true; do
ck-launch-session wmii
xmessage 'Do you really want to quit wmii?' \
-buttons 'Yes:0,No:1' -center \
-default 'No' -timeout 30 \
&& break
done
Also, if an unrecoverable exception occurs in my WM configuration, I
launch an xterm to give the user the chance to fix the problem and
then I offer to reload the WM configuration for them:

https://github.com/sunaku/wmiirc/blob/master/lib/wmiirc/loader.rb#L99
Cheers.
