Another window installation method?

As another option for the window installation, has anyone ever considered window locking gaskets instead of glue. You can go to trimlok.com and check out the window locking gaskets. There would be required trimming of the plexiglass, doors or both. The window and window frame slides (and matches) into the gasket, then the gasket gets locked in place. I am not at the point of completing the doors, et all, so I have zero knowlege if it would work or not. For those who have done the doors and windows, is it something that could be reasonably done, or do you see too many issues with this gasket concept.
 
It would be a good idea to check with the factory and see if the transparencies are a structural item.

If so, I seriously doubt the rubber channel will work.
 
I also wonder if the rubber channels will hold the window adequately under the pressures experienced at 200mph.
