The Qt based stack they had working when I was developing for the N900 was actually pretty nice. The platform-specific documentation was generally horrible, and queries to Nokia tended to be answered with "it's on the wiki somewhere", but overall it was fairly developer-friendly.
As you say, of course, the fact that I was working on rewriting the original Gtk version of the app was a pretty big warning sign.
