But it is still unclear to me *why* you want to do this. If your panel has a close box, and it is the window with keyboard focus, many users are going to expect Command-W to close that window. Going out of your want to disable that functionality is likely to frustrate these users.

An example of this is in the Finder. The info window you get with Command-I responds to Command-W. But the info inspector panel that you get with Command-Option-I does not, despite having a close button and being able to have focus. This drives me nuts, because I often hit Command-W in the latter case and end up closing my Finder file- browser window by mistake instead of the info panel.

(In case anyone's wondering: Command-Option-I toggles the info inspector, so you can use that instead of Command-W.)
