Ah.  Well, I understood from this diagram:
http://www.integralive.org/dokuwiki/doku.php/lib:design

that both the GUI and the module host have their own instance hosts
accessed via bridges.
I assumed from this diagram that these two instance hosts communicated
with each other over OSC, but that libIntegra took care of this
communication.  (the IH being part of libIntegra)

Is that not the correct interpretation?
