I'm sorry, but I have to ask - what is for you a "normal" LV2 UI?<br>
<br>
Some might say Gtk2 or Qt4 or X11 on Linux, but things are changing
fast that will not allow this.<br>
Gtk3 UIs will not work on Gtk2 hosts, with the same regarding Qt4
and Qt5 (and vice-versa).<br>
Then don't forget we're moving to Wayland and/or Mir...<br>
<br>
Current Qt5 release (as of 5.2) doesn't provide a way to embed
widgets afaik, like the Qt4's QX11Embed/Container.<br>
<br>
In my case (of Carla 2.0), I'm moving away from having *any* toolkit
code in the backend except "native" UIs (Linux being X11 for now).<br>
This means UIs that use some toolkit (Gtk2/3, Qt4/5, FLTK, etc) and
need instance-access will not work.<br>
