Just open it yourself and set its datasource to your view.

Even though IKImageView doesn't explicitly conform to the 
IKImageEditPanelDataSource protocol doesn't mean that it isn't a 
viable datasource (since it explicitly implements all the methods of 
the protocol).

So roughly:

IKImagEditPanel *editor = [IKImageEditPanel sharedImageEditPanel];
[editor setDataSource: myImageView];
[editor makeKeyAndOrderFront: nil];
