Just a couple hints - although my name is on a lot of the files, that's from several years ago. Others are far more expert than I.
There are two projects that control the toolkit-specific aspects of the ui: https://github.com/imagej/imagej-ui-swing and https://github.com/scijava/scijava-ui-swing You might find far more of the bulk of the UI in scijava-ui-swing. Those are the generic parts, things like frames, menus and controls. The root of it all is org.scijava.ui.UserInterface - if you implement this interface and annotate it, it will be the one that's used if your jar is in the classpath instead of the Swing one: https://github.com/scijava/scijava-ui-swing/blob/master/src/main/java/org/scijava/ui/swing/sdi/SwingSDIUI.java#L59 If you want your stuff to show up first, with the other jars being there already, you can develop a plugin with a higher priority (see the documentation for Plugin). For instance, if you want a new display viewer, just implement one derived from DisplayViewer, make its plugin priority higher than SwingSDIImageDisplayViewer and it wil be the one that's used. I thing that might be close to what you want to do.
