*Well, Apple recommends lots of things, it also gives a damn about pro
audio software developers, forces programmers to use different programming
languages, horrible technologies such as audiounits etc... but none of this
is the issue here.*

I need the popups, that's why I'm asking. The trouble is, the hosts are
working correctly - the events are delivered to the target window. But
since I'm assuming the host will be an app with a main window, I assume the
events would be processed there. So my question is simply how to forward
the events to that window. Any ideas?
