    a view for a subApplication.

    Made to be VW compatible as much as possible (try opening a RefactoringBrowser ...).
    However, the default setup is not very useful, to embedd arbitrary applications
    which are meant to be separate stand-alone applications.
    Play with the settings:
        keepClientView          (default: true)
        useApplicationSubView   (default: false)
        useOwnBuilder           (default: false)
