Little example for the persons who think I want to create a big view api :)

namespace KExtEditor
{

class Document;

class View : public QWidget,
{
public:
  View( Document *doc, QWidget *parent, const char *name = 0 );
  virtual ~View();

  virtual Document *document() const;
};

class Document : public KParts::ReadWritePart
{
  Q_OBJECT
public:
  Document( QObject *parent = 0, const char *name = 0 );
  virtual ~Document();

  /**
   * Create a view that will display the document data. You can create as many
   * views as you like. When the user modifies data in one view then all other
   * views will be updated as well.
   */
  virtual View *createView( QWidget *parent, const char *name = 0 ) = 0;

  /*
   * Accessor to the list of views.
   */
  virtual QList<View> views() const;

  [snip .....] what you need else like interface query .....

protected:
  QList<View> m_views;
};

};

That would be the API I like (with query interface stuff ... added).
Doc/View managment is the work of kdevelop's doc/view manager to enable the 
possibility to use several different editorpart in the same GUI at the same 
time. (to write docu while coding ....)
