Thanks for the tips guys, qlmanage -p seems to do the trick for now - though I guess I won't have any control over it? or can detect when its finished? (or can that be done with AppleScript or something)...

and now lets see if it works from within a QCPlugIn :P

The publicly available way to activate Quick Look is
to call the qlmanage command line tool. Why they
didn't make the QuickLookUI framework public is beyond
me (I spent hours looking for a public API before I
realized it just wasn't there), but you can do
something similar with qlmanage -p.
