Greetings,
Nowadays I use Openbox as a window manager of choice and yesterday I was browsing though Google Images for Openbox screenshots. I saw that some users have a title on their Openbox menu. (see this image (http://lewk.org/img/securityspin.png): "Fedora Security Spin").

This (http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=6rn9k6&s=7) is my current Openbox menu. As you can see it doesn't have any title. I wonder how can edit menu.xml file to include a title of my choice.

Use the separator-item with a label on it:


<separator label="Ubuntu" />

A Word of Caution

If you use the GUI OpenBox menu editor: obmenu

It sees:

<separator label="SR11 Ops Centre"/>
and

<separator label="SR11 Cockpit"/>
as simple separators!

Do not use obmenu to edit separators if you have a few like I do. When I started using them, I found out the hard way.
