I think you could copy the code from gtkdialog.c, but a better fix might
be to make the window into a modeless dialog.  If it has a close button,
it really is a dialog-- as you were discussing earlier, the user expects
to close a Window with the window manager's close button (like the main
pan window, for example) but expects to close a dialog with Escape or
the Close button in the bottom right.

--evan, who just spent the last few weeks' worth of hacking time going
  through his code and making the dialogs behave properly :)
