You need to:
- disable Desktop from starting and start only Browser
- and use the same policy for Browser as for Desktop so
that it's restarted when user closes it (see desktop
startup script)
- change Matchbox theme (xml file, documented in Matchbox site)
so that window titlebar doesn't have minimize button
