If you wanted the add code to not know about the viewer then I guess you could use a singleton method for accessing the current viewer, or pass the viewer pointer to add methods. Another alternative would be to not use CompositeViewer but instead place the osg::Camera for each 2D track into the main scene graph. The osghud example shows how to do this with an in scene graph osg::Camera as well as the more conventional and recommend routes of placing the HUD as a slave Camera or separate View. The advantage of the CompositeViewer with separate Views is each View can have it's won event handles and camera manipulator, so allows for unique behaviours in convenient form. Conceptually it also easy to get your head around. Robert.
