There really is nothing completely new going on here, the majority of gnome development has always been carried out on Linux based distros, and other distros if they want gnome to work have always had to port components/technologies to their platform, Hal on solaris is a good example of this.
The only real difference here is looking for GNOME RE team to make a statement defining that they are ONLY focused on Linux... I reckon this won't happen.
