a similar tool exist for Python too, I'm aware of it, but it's not
supporting Maemo at all.
I hope you know that Maemo UI is quite differente from the desktop Qt version.

There aren't only QtButton, QtDialog, QtLabel ecc... in a user interface.
Maemo has its own widget and there's no way (at the moment) to have a
real preview of them.

If you have seen the recently published video on youtube, showing
Maemo 6 widgets, you surely have noticed that Qt developers are
showing Maemo support in QtCreator, but it's not ready/published at
the moment.
