Adding (on-screen) effects for Freevo in xine and mplayer currently is painful process. It takes months before all changes make it into released versions of the modified libraries (freevo, xine-ui and xine-lib, mplayer) and even some more time until distros have included them. An extensible, separate UI component is very welcome. The 3rd item of the skill set in the UI3 proposal (architecture/integration) should not be under-estimated. Eye-candy is good and will attract end-users but for developers to support UI3, a rich and consistent API that integrates well into MCE apps is key for long-time support. I'm too interested in a separate discussion on this topic.
