Let's clarify little bit. It is different running to get applications running 
and get them 
having good consistent UI with other system applications. 

Because MeeGo devices will have real WoW effect UI, to get your application 
succeed,
i recommend to invest designing UI that matches to rest of system.

I don't know status of
MeeGo Hildon port but there will be some difficulties . In Maemo 5 most of 
animations
and transitios were made with window manager, in MeeGo they are made with UI 
toolkit
except application switching that is made with window manager/compositor. That's
mostly problem with sliding/stacked windows. Also virtual keyboard 
implementation differs. 

I strongly recommend any application developer looking Qt Qml ( Qt Quick ) and 
Qt-Components
for UI implementation. Depenging of GTK+ application how much actual 
application logic
can be reused.
