Oh, well, I didn't know that because I don't use lxsession. And yes,
I had Openbox crash some time ago so had to relaunch my session. :)

Ah, I see, thank you very much.

Well, it does not in my case, it never crashes. And it is usable as
soon it does not crashes without any autorestart. And I've disabled the
autorestart on my nephew+nieces's machine. It just should never crash, I
just want it to be crash-free. As I said already. :)
