This is already supported on GnomeDock.  You can force any docked item not
to allow detaching from the window.

This does not work too well unless you only have one bar per row/column,
while GnomeDock lets the user have as many bars as she likes to on any
row/column (unless the user explicitly forbids this).  A nice alternative
way would be to have a menu to select which toolbars are visible like in
M$ Office.
