The main issues are solved now. I'm currently working on a few
additional features:

- textfields with multiple lines
- node windows that can be connected like the one in the node window
- scrollbars (vertical and horizontal)


To use the API in a 3dview you need a simple patch that is included with
the source. The guys on #blendercoders told me that the patch will be
included in the apricot branch (in around 2 weeks with a bit luck :), so
you don't need to compile blender with the patch to use the API in a
3dview. 

As soon as i get the password from my webspace provider i'll upload the
current dev version).
