AFAIK (I heard stories from other developers): Symbian or UIQ maintains a list of critical apps that should not be terminated - things like phone dialler etc. A 3rd party app can add themselves to this list, but generally shouldn't... anyway if it does shutdown apps it'll shut down all but those on the list.

If the device needs memory it will shut down apps that are in the background automatically. There really isn't much need to turn applications off, other than that "we" are used to it from desktop environments.
