I have done this. I create a Unidraw object and use the Unidraw event
loop to drive the application.  You can quit using unidraw::quit or
Session::quit.  You can create an Editor and pop it up using unidraw::open.
I have defined the appearance of one editor using widgets from WidgetKit,
and another using unidraw (2.6-based) objects like Viewer.  I have not yet
tried combining 3.1 and 2.6 objects in the same editor -- but as long as
you stick to one or the other I know it works. You can, though, have an
editor that is defined by a composition of unidraw (2.6) objects pop up
a dialog that is made of widgets (a subclass of Dialog, like that of
DialogKit::file_chooser).
