You moved a portion of your code from one place to another.

I do not think what won't work. You use HIView, right?
Suppose you install event handlers that fetch every event and
return noerr before HIView see them, would HIView still work?
No. How do you make it work again? It's simple. You remove
those event handlers. The compositing bit of window is just
like that. I just turn it off and forget about it.

I guess it is possible to "adapt the framework (david dunham)"
by making it to use HIView and carbon-events -- but then, it
won't be a WNE based framework anymore (which may be a good
thing) and I have some reasons to believe that the framework
will become less flexible. Also that means massive rewrite of
both a framework and user codes. And the benefit? Other than
the satisfaction that I am less behind from the Apples latest,
I do not see much. It's "less attractive and beneficial to
do so"
