Actually your comment below "they can't cancel or navigate elsewhere"
is precisely what I want. The only time this is being used in my app
is to completely freeze out a user by an administrator. I am using
managed DataServices and thus if an administrator changes the UserVO
value 'enabled' to false then that value pushes through to that users
computer. I have set up ObserveValue at the root of the application
to look for that change on the model and if it registers it then I
want to display an alert and then freeze the entire application,
forcing the user to navigate away. I guess I could just build in a
URL redirect and get the same effect. I was just wondering if how I
could freeze the app. Sounds like it is possible, but not easy.

Because Flash is a single-threaded runtime, freezing is a bad
thing, you can’t interact with the app at all, and eventually
you’ll get an timeout error. Your users will be frustrated that
they can’t cancel or navigate elsewhere in your app.
