Marco had an "edit activity" which did the minimal stuff for Journal entries. Doesn't seem to be in git any more, but I still had the files. See http://dev.laptop.org/~morgan/editactivity.py (I don't know if it's out of date, haven't tried to run it but it looks fine.) The "Keep" functionality should be automatically invoked when you stop an activity, or even alt-tab or switch away from it. I don't think this example had an explicit Keep button but that should be easy to follow from another activity.
