RE: Disabling the cancel button

QPEApplication reimplements QApplication::qwsEventFilter() - this is where
the key event for Qt::Key_Escape is trapped and hardwired to
QWidget::close().  The key event will still be delivered, by a different
route, but only after this has happened.

you can get round this by reimplementing QApplication::notify() and
filtering off the cancel key event there.
