IIRC, we have BWindows which accept BViews along with the appropriate 
server code.

Not yet on both counts. :( A lot of the stuff happening lately is my 
own work on freshening up some APIs which have to do with cursors and 
stuff. The messaging infrastructure is also getting some work, but I've 
been having difficulties lately on that, but it should find its way 
into the tree soon also.  Because of the way the server is structured, 
we will get displayable windows and views at about the same time. Quite 
literally, completing the clipping and redraw code and fixing its bugs 
will be a *huge* milestone. Adi's gotten it nearly complete, so we're 
getting much closer.

Me neither.
