Sure. However, I think it's awkward to offer the user the possibility 
to clock the close button, and then tell him/her that it's not allowed 
to close the window.

I WANT the user to see the log messages, so I DO NOT WANT them to close 
the log display.

I tried EnableCloseButton(False), but that did not remove the close 
button. I am on Linux/GTK3. Is this a bug or a feature?

The philosophical part seems to be the key to solve my problem in a 
good way. I guess there are good reasons why the GUI toolkit(s?) do not 
make it straight forward to show a separate window without a close 
button. It might be better to show the log messages in the main window 
of the program. Closing this window is possible and is equivalent with 
exiting the program, which seems more "natural" for the average user.
