Is there any way to securely stick a notebook window (e.g. a dialog)
on screen that it cannot be closed/removed/hidden by any of the
standard OS shortcuts, like Alt+F4 or Alt+Tab under Windows? The ideal
solution would allow me to specify a range of key-combinations that
can be used, and block any other, though it would not be a problem to
block all keyboard input, as there are other ways to close a modal
dialog.

I have a feeling that this cannot be done entirely from under
Mathematica.
