Your other choice is to have your entire application opened in a new, separate browser window, but with the browser 'chrome' & history turned off. In that case, users cannot accidentally navigate away from the application, because there _is no_ navigation history to begin with. Of course not everyone likes the idea of opening new browser windows, so this technique may not be useful everywhere.
