I don't think progressive enhancement solves all that much in terms of
SEO.
The problem lies in the fact that humans will *always* use the human
version of URLs, and Google still won't know how to deal with those.
For example, I will add a link on my blog to my Twitter account like
this: twitter.com/#!/danburzo <http://twitter.com/#%21/danburzo>,
because that's what it says in my browser's location bar. Search
engines still need to make sense of this in order to boost the rank
for twitter.com/danburzo <http://twitter.com/danburzo>.
Totally. The other thing to consider is though that for a lot of these
apps SEO is not really an issue. So if you tell people they shouldn't
use hash-bangs because of Google you will get a lot of "well, we have an
app that has people's private info in it - it shouldn't be indexed anyways".
Why a site like http://www.learnsomethingeveryday.co.uk/#/2010/12/28
uses it doesn't name any sense to me at all.
