GWT is absolutely not addressable/discoverable. Google can't search your GWT site unless you add something like an atom feed and design the GWT pages to react according when somebody hits a deep (yet fake) link into your site.
The same strategy will work for Flash/Silverlight/JavaFX or whatever system you use to add client-side pizazz to your site.
