You can put a 'regular' View on top of your GLSurfaceView (call addContentView with the regular View). If your regular view has areas with a transparent background, you can combine 2D controls with your 3D OpenGL.
But it looks like you want to be able to apply OpenGL style operations on regular 2D views (e.g. have a 3D cube-like ViewFlipper, with 6 screens, one on each side). Is this correct? I think this can be done. However, i'm worried about the performance. When the user flips, moving from one screen to another, you'd have to get the bitmap from the current screen (drawing cache?), make a texture out of it apply it to the 3D cube, hide the current regular screen (view), show the GLSurface View, rotate the cube to the next screen, hide the GLSurface View, show the next screen. I have not tried the above, but that's what i would try first :). Another possibility: Maybe it is possible to create your own custom Animations...
