I was trying what is essentially this (nodelet image_view) today. I am having a problem, and I don't know if it's unique problem to OSX, or not. If it's unique to OSX, I'll try to fix it in OpenCV, but if not, it's probably better to fix it in nodelet.
The problem is that cvWaitKey never gets called from the main thread, and so the window content never updates. I have a perpetually white window. Calling cvWaitKey from the nodelet thread is not sufficient.
If you guys want to try this from Ubuntu, I'm happy to send source.
