I have a program that has the same requirements.  The way I solved
it, and I don't guarantee that this is the best way, is to keep an
eye on the value returned by FrontWindow().  If it points to one
of my windows that needs the Edit items or a desk accessory, I
make sure that the Edit items are enabled.  Otherwise, I disable
the Edit items.

Additionally, (insurance you know) I make a practice of enabling the
Edit items before launching a desk accessory and checking FrintWindow()
(oops, FrontWindow()) when Close is selected from the menubar.
