I am not clear about what you are saying here: at present closing the un-docked palettes means they are hidden and will not re-appear on re-starting Denemo. Currently there is no user-method of actually destroying palettes, which, because the implementation is so simple, actually consumes time at startup; it would be good to know if anyone with a slow machine finds this an issue - I could add "destroy" buttons which could set the user's palettes.xml file to an empty xml document saving time at startup (and at the same time a button to remove the user's denemo.scm which would enable them to get rid of buttons they may have added to the toolbars).
