I would strongly advise you against this approach
The API for the Carbon View is providing you a window where the host
is expecting you to display your UI - your code is disregarding that
directive and putting up its own window instead - not a very polite
or well-mannered behaviour on your part
We have yet to address formally the Cocoa View side of things for
Audio Units and will definately do so in a future release
So, any discussion past that central point is in my view mute.
As it's only an experiment, I'm happy to go with the flow. But please
give the development of the Cocoa API a high priority !

True, and I'm not happy with the idea either, which is why I put my Qs
up here for criticism. It's more of an experiment to see if it could
be made to work, and it looks like it could. But there is IMHO a case
for multiple views, especially for some complex synth/sampler plugins.
The current trend appears to be to cram far too much into one
window/view.
Yes I agree - and the Carbon Event Model on X provides a means through
which this can certainly be done successfully. I believe though this
should be the exception rather than the rule and the main window entry
for a plugin needs to be able to control the other windows in a
pleasant and understandable manner for the user
