Why not use a constructor and let the compiler manage the boilerplate?

	this(NSRect frame) [initWithFrame:] {
		//my stuff
		super(frame);
	}

This should emit the same code as the function above (but I haven't 
tested). And then you can write:

	auto view = new KeyboardView(someFrame);

and have proper type safety.
