A closer look in the SDK tells me that if the owner window is a handle
it is just passed on through to the super:init, which eventually is
the window:init, so it should work as long as it is allowed for a
win32 window to have a .net window as parent. Just try it and see what
happens...

The SDK that I've been looking in is the SDK for VO2.8 sp1.
