Notice that the "init" method for a View makes a zero-by-zero frame
rectangle.  If you're going to use "init" rather than "initFrame",
you'll need to use "sizeTo::" later on.

Don't call drawSelf:: directly.  Use one of the "display" methods.

You don't need the above.  The "display" machinery will call "drawSelf::"
for the Views needed.

In the above, you could add:
	NXSize sz;
	/* ... */
	[imagerep getSize:&sz];
	[self sizeTo:sz.width:sz.height];

It might be more straightforward, though, to redesign all this so
that you get your NXImage (and it's size) before you allocate and
initialize the ImageView.

"composite:fromRect:toPoint" is intended to composite a sub-rectangle
of your image.  Better here to use:
	[imagerep composite:NX_COPY toPoint:&bounds.origin];
