Another option to consider is to make your own window with say a custom
toolbar at the top and then try to embed the UV editor into another Qt
layout.
I've done this before to embed a simplified graph editor into a a character
finaling tool. I don't know about the UV editor but with the graphEditor
all I got from cmds was just the graph widget and nothing else. Thus I was
left with the laborious task of recreating the graphEdior tool bar.
