Okay, for testing I put the container on the window and then instantiate with:
vcTask.view = ContainerControl11.NSViewMBS
But - just to be very annoying - I now get a hard crash when quitting the app:
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000
Exception Note: EXC_CORPSE_NOTIFY

Edit: need to close the popup with
if pvrTask <> nil then
pvrTask.performClose
pvrTask = nil
vcTask = nil
end if
on close.
