What if you try making the lilliput the primary display, and the laptop LCD the secondary (clone) display? Then adding or subtracting the laptop LCD (opening and closing it) would not affect it. Is 800x480 available when the lilliput is primary?

Other than that I was thinking maybe disabling the lcd-close switch. You said you didn't want the laptop lcd to be on all the time so perhaps you could unplug the video/power connection to it inside the laptop. That way the switch would tell windows that the lcd is always open, but in reality the video and power to the screen are disconnected. Not sure if this would work.
