If you only have a close button then you probably don't need a button controller. Unless you want to do some read-only control of the inputs but then you'd have to read the HIG for details of what they want. > What is the /right/ way of dealing with this?

You may want to create your own policy for gnome but I suspect you may only need the IgnorantPolicy or perhaps an IgnorantReadonlyPolicy (which is simple enough to write). Allan. (ARRae)
