The lockdown can be done. However...there are things that can always be done to circumvent it...it is just knowing if your users will be smart enough to try it. Here are some things to think about though.
1) You will need to edit and recompile the core. You have to do this because of the "Oh Shit! Menu". It has the option to use run which you can not control.
2) In a domain environment user configs are stored on the domain controller so you should be able to control the shell setting from there.
3) You need to disable Ctrl+Shift+ESC and Ctrl+Alt+Del which can not be done via LiteStep.
4) This has been done before by another development team. LDE is a Desktop Environment used by a company for this sort of control.
5) Read up on User Levels...it is easier to just do it in Windows alone.
6) Most of all...Have fun and never let anyone say never!
