I should probably add that the view I'm talking about is provided by my
plug-in so I'm able to modify the view implementation itself should that
be neccessary.

Thanks again,

When you own the perspective you can mark a view as not closable. But
when your view is brought up in a perspective not owned by you then I'm
not aware of a way to tell Eclipse to mark it not closable.

It is possible to listen for part events like close by implementing
IPartListener and calling getPartService().addPartListener().

See org.eclipse.ui.ISaveablePart2.promptToSaveOnClose()
