I had a similar problem, and I hacked in a little kludge to allow me to turn
off event propogation entirely:
var map = new OpenLayers.Map('map', mapOptions);
//This is a serious kludge, to allow us to turn off event handling on
the map,
//when OpenLayers supports no such functionality.
map.events.idle = false;
map.events.originalTriggerEvent = openLayersMap.events.triggerEvent;
map.events.triggerEvent = function(type, evt) {
if (this.idle) return;
this.originalTriggerEvent(type, evt);
};
It's ugly, and it may get me into real trouble, some time in the future, but it
works.
If I set map.events.idle = true, no events fire at all.

No response at all, the content covers the whole map interface at the moment.
Whether that works as a design (from a user perspective) is yet to be seen.
