Consider that the special characters palette is system-wide, not app-specific. A user may activate it in another app and then bring yours up with the palette still available, even though it's not appropriate. A user may also wish to activate it within your app before switching to another app where it is appropriate, and will be annoyed to find that you've removed the command. Also consider that there's more to your app than just your code. For example, it would be reasonable to use this palette to ender text into the search box in the Help menu (although this doesn't actually work on Leopard, it would seem) and there may be other text fields around that you haven't explicitly created.
In addition to what Michael wrote, it is possible for the user to open the character palette from the Input Menu. It is impossible to stop the user getting at the character palette.
