Google closure tools and library

Any thoughts on the Google closures tools release announcement.

Will jQuery work with it? is it better?

If you look at the online version of the compiler, you'll see that
jQuery, jQuery UI, and other popular libraries are options in the "Add
a URL" dropdown menu:

http://closure-compiler.appspot.com/home

I assume that means that Google anticipates Closure being used in
conjunction with those existing libraries.

in closure I selected Jquery from the URL and tried this specific code.

$(function() { alert(true); });

they were no errors.
but 3 warnings.
I also noticed it takes considerably longer to compile JavaScript as it
compiles the whole Jquery library along with your script.
Shouldn't it compile your script only since jquery.min is a compiled file ?

*Number of warnings: 3*
