Thanks.  That did the trick.

I created the file /home/dsl/reflux.sh containing this:

 #!/bin/bash
 # Restarts fluxbox while preserving bbpager's location

 sudo killall bbpager
 bbpager &
 fluxbox

then modified /home/dsl/.fluxbox/menu as follows:

from this:

  [submenu] (WindowManager) {}
     [exit] (Exit)
     [reconfig] (Reconfigure)
     [restart] (Restart)
  [end]

to this:

  [submenu] (WindowManager) {}
     [exit] (Exit)
     [reconfig] (Reconfigure)
     [restart] (Restart) {/home/dsl/reflux.sh}
  [end]

This seems to work pretty seamlessly.

Hmm...

Maybe this is a good addition to a future versin of DSL.

Good post, with a simple mod to handle the "noicons" or plain desktop, it will be included in 0.8.3.
