Her'es another question:
it seems like:
someView.getMCRref().innerHTML
works as well as
someView.sprite.getMCRef().innerHTML
And looking into the code I discover, that LaszloView#getMCRef just
does:
function getMCRef () :* { return this.sprite.getMCRef(); }
Any reason for doubling that behavior?

There is the view.getMCRef() method which returns a reference to the
view's div (or movieclip if you're in Flash). It's expedient, but
dangerous - so your mileage may vary!
I filed an improvement request to give this method a better name:

I don't agree. Modifying innerHTML of DIVs is really valuable for
mixed runtime applications, or components which are re-used across
runtimes (Flash Google maps and Ajax Google Maps, for example).
Using iFrames adds complexity in such a case. But you are right,
poking at internals is never safe, but in this case, adds some
fun. :-)
Honestly, the more important DHTML runtime becomse, the greater is
the need for simple DOM modification inside OpenLaszlo apps. @Max:
what do you think?

Obviously, you are free to do so, because it's open source, but
the sprite API is an internal API.
What's wrong with the <html> tag, which is the supported way to
embed html in LZX? It would be better to improve that to meet
your needs, if possible.

There as a question in the forum on how you can attach custom
HTML code to a view, not using the HTML tag.

I suggested to do:
<canvas proxied="true">
<view id="targetview" width="320" height="260" />
<handler name="oninit">
<![CDATA[
var player="<embed type='application/x-shockwave-flash'
src='http://videodetective.net/flash/players/player4.3.132.swf?customerid=120000&publishedid=88
8439&playerid=69&pversion=4&playlistid=0&videokbra
te=750&sub=&debug=' pluginspage='http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer'
allowScriptAccess='always' flashvars='allowFullScreen=true'
allowfullscreen='true' height='260' width='320'></embed>";
targetview.sprite.__LZdiv.innerHTML = player;
Debug.write(targetview.sprite.__LZdiv);
]]>
</handler>
</canvas>
Is that something which should be done? Seems to work...
