getView() returns either 1: a view specifically selected for this
component by Sofa mapping, or if no Sofa mapping 2: the built-in
_InitialView. Using this call at the top of process() would provide all
existing Sofa-unaware annotators with the same CAS view they got in
previous versions of UIMA.

Please help me here, I'm not really up-to-date with the whole view/Sofa
concept. Can't we provide a process method that is fully backward
compatible, without having to call this? I think that would be the
preferable solution.
Also, I think it's premature to look to the OASIS work for guidance.
Let's follow our own good sense until the standard is at a stage where
we feel confident it won't change much.
