I guess I was under the impression that he was telnetting from a PC to an
iSeries, then telnetting from that iSeries to something else.

If that's the case, you can block the ATTN key (actually, it's probably an
AID sequence) from getting from the original PC to the iSeries using a
proxy.

As I said, if the telnet server never receives the ATTN key, it can't
bring up the panel.  I hope this explanation was a bit clearer.  Since
there are two telnet sessions going on, it's easy to get lost.
