Description:

needed sometimes, when a full application is embeded into an ExtendedComboBox
or subcanvas AND you want to avoid, that this application accesses the outer
applications aspects (by returning a private application instance).

Notice: you may have to manually set this views application to be the embedded app
       (i.e. via #application:) unless it is set by #client:....

see self-embedding example in CodingExamples_GUI::GUIDemoExtendedComboBox

Instance protocol:

 client: anApplication spec: aWindowSpecOrSpecSymbol builder: aBuilder
