You could just lay a modal view on top of the whole thing. This is what modal views are for. They are really misnamed. They are not about modality; they are just another way of completely replacing a view hierarchy. This is one reason why you're not supposed to call presentModal... any more.

Furthermore, in iOS 5 you can design your own container view controller. So go nuts. Roll your own variant on a split view controller, and now none of Apple's rules apply to you. m.
