I have a webkit plugin that fork/exec's a child process, and in the child

[NSOpenGLContext setView: MyWebKitView]
I tried getting the windowref from the plugin and passing it into the child
process and then
[[NSWindow alloc] initWithWindowRef: windowref]
but it is always returning null.
I'm thinking it may be a permissions issue since it's a seperate process, but
I hope not, or that there is a way around it.
A window context is a private "relationship" between the task that
requested the window and the window server. You cannot share them
across tasks with current versions of Mac OS X.
In other words at this time you really cannot do what you appear to be
doing... at least the way you are trying to do it.
