What about that Close Document hook you mentioned?

You should be able to remove the close button altogether by omitting
"close" from that gconf setting, but don't they have other windows they
might need close buttons for. With a really configurable window manager
you can apply different settings to windows with different "classes" (I
think each application tends to have its own class).
