Could be a nod to the Myriad project? ...Or me just reading WAY to much into this.

Great read though
i think you are reading too much into this, that you just passed by something "less" deep.
unfortunatly, i dont think Nokia can allow this tool to be in use by the public of the future MeeGo phone, but they could encourage Android developers to just put their game\app through a what seems to be a very simple solution and you got yourself a Meego app.
when this process is done, this app/game is NO longer an android's but meego's. so thats not much in "joining" an ecosystem, More like "riding" one
However this might be the door left open for WP7.

In regard to their current strategy, i always claimed that meego was a huge mistake. Maemo5 is a very capable system and with a 1 yr work it could have been ready for the masses.
