In defence of Fremantle, I have to say I wasn't pressing the mouse very trusting, and in a device the behaviour is better than seen in the video.
And, again: The original point was answering the question if what we're seeing from the UI in this alpha is (close to) the final UI. My bet was "no", because the reason given for not offering Maemo5 to N8x0-owners was "the revamped UI relying on graphics acceleration" (see here). Now because we see nothing that relies on graphics acceleration so far (and Stskeeps tells us it runs fine under Mer), either they dropped the idea of a UI relying on graphics acceleration (which would be a good thing, as it would bring Maemo5 to my N800) or, more likely, we haven't seen the real thing yet.

http://wiki.maemo.org/Task:Maemo_roadmap/Fremantle says it quite clearly what clutter is used for:
Fremantle introduces a new UI framework which uses Clutter OpenGL library. It provides the following functionality:
* Window manager
* Task Launcher
* Task switcher
* Home view
* Status menu and status area
* New Hildon notification API for handling desktop notifications.

Did you restart X?
This works for me:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "intel"
Option "AperTexSize" "262144"
Option "XVideo" "1"
Option "XaaNoPixmapCache"
Option "XAANoOffscreenPixmaps" "1"
Option "DRI" "true"
Option "AccelMethod" "XAA"
EndSection

So I imagine it's relying in graphics acceleration.

And here the next SharePy version running in Fremantle.
It's running in plain gtk without hildon and looks fine anyway, except the images in the treeview are with 'bad' colours.

As a comment aside, it's a bit weird that this thread hasn't been taken to the home. I wonder if Reggie & Roger are aware?

It's a little bit complicated to use... like you have to scroll all the way up again if you find that the file you're looking for is not in the currently selected directory, but in one of its sub-folders. a good chooser would let you select directories from an additinal tree on the left. (there's a very good reson why file choosers normally have two or even more lists to select directories, files, recently used... blabla). in this case obviously form didn't follow function, but was dictated other factors.
As Stskeeps says, it's running in Mer, so the new Hildon widgets can be tested with an device.
Also, other Fremantle widgets can be seen in this screenshots: http://www.flickr.com/photos/yerga/s...7612365187767/
or here (are the same): http://share.ovi.com/channel/yerga.Hildonwidgets
Though, they are from the first alpha (without theming), and they could have changed in the updates.
