As long as the connections do not pass through another server and anyone using the app directly connects to BitcoinTalk.org: Sure I wouldn't mind having a more compatible app.
Be prepared for a long development time. You could throw some of the development on Github to speed up the process and allow other members to contribute.
Connections will hit bitcointalk.org directly as running an intermediary server seems expensive and I can't really think of any benefits to that.
