The UI directly on the glass would be a big mistake, it would obviously be impossible to read. There's one funny thing to do with a hololens headset: you take in front of you and look into the holographic displays, then slightly move your head. It really looks like there is something far from the display levitating in space. A true hologram is quite amazing. Even though hololens ones are 2D, think a floating photograph, they can change the distance the "photograph" is from the display and there's one per eye so it still feels close to the 3D effect you'd expect.
