Create custom legend or contentview in dockable window

Any idea if you can hide any of the sections inside the table of contents using ArcObjects? I'm only interested in the 'List by Visibility section'. I have tried IContentsViewEdit, but doesn't seem to work in 10.X. Even better, I would like to re-create that ContentView in my own dockable window, if that's a possibility.

Another possibility would be to display ILegend in a dockable window. I'm successful in adding it to Layout View, but not a dockable window (see below).

ILegend legend = new LegendClass_2();
legend.AutoAdd = true;
legend.Title = "Test";
legend.Map = mxdoc.FocusMap;
IMapSurroundFrame MSFrame = new MapSurroundFrameClass();
MSFrame.MapSurround = legend;
IElement MSElement = MSFrame as IElement;
IEnvelope en = new EnvelopeClass();
en.XMin = 1.5; en.YMin = 1.5;
en.Width = 10; en.Height = 10;
MSElement.Geometry = en as IGeometry;
IGraphicsContainer gc = mxdoc.PageLayout as IGraphicsContainer;
gc.AddElement(MSElement, 0);
mxdoc.ActiveView.PartialRefresh(esriViewDrawPhase.esriViewGraphics, null, null);

Any suggestions on wither of these two methods would be great. Thanks
