If you are using mwm, you can remove the Close item from the
window manager menu by settting the XmNmwmFunctions resource
on the shell widget.  I'm not sure about other window managers.

As for getting notified when top-level windows are destroyed,
I believe you are on the right track using XmAddProtocolCallback.
It is true that this does not exist in X11R3, but the same effect
can be accomplished by using XChangeProperties.  You need to
add WM_DELETE_WINDOW to the WM_PROTOCOLS property on the shell
window.  You must also install an event handler to process
ConfigureNotify events on the shell window.
