very cool, this is basically how i planned to implement it, but in my
idea, i've imagined the app_server that does the drawing operations
instead of sending bitmaps, just because i see it non-efficent.

From what i know, the RemoteView should handle the redirect process
itself, i mean that a programmer should not add any other code in the
app hosting the RemoteView...so maybe the way can be to register a
BHandler to the app/window?
Additionally...maybe there should be a way to distinguish those
messages (im_what) from "normal" app_kit notification messages?

Already done, i've removed all useless code and split them into two
apps...so that these can just go in the test directory of the haiku
tree.

No problem, your code is already a good help.

Yeah sure!
