Actually, forget about that, Im into WindowManagerService  and
associated details, and Im having a hard time visualizing how it all
hangs together.

Particularly, I am struggling with the relationship between
WindowManagerService, PhoneWindowManager, WindowManagerImpl, and
ViewRoot.

I can see that ViewRoot is the ultimate View ancestor of the View
hierarchy for a Activity window

I can see that ViewRoot and WindowManagerService chat via IPC, using
the IWindowSession and IWindow interfaces respectively.

I can see that WindowManagerImpl instantiates the ViewRoot

Then I start to get lost.

Any help appreciated...
