Preventing exit

[Baxter]

I've got a customer that because of union/pay scale issues wants to prevent
the user from exiting my application to the launcher. Basically turning the
unit into a dedicated Data Collector instead of a PDA.

It looks like I can do this by simply not responding to the appStopEvent
ie: change } while (event.eType != appStopEvent);
to } while (1);

Are there any gotchas or downsides to doing this?

One question that arises is: how does this affect HotSync?

Will not exiting the app prevent HotSync? Can I detect when the app wants
to exit for a HotSync or can I launch a HotSync from within my app?

I've got some info on how I could restart my app on a
sysAppLaunchCmdSyncNotify.
