Incoming mail support - currently only email addresses are supported:
whatever@yourappid.appspotmail.com . Perhaps after 1-2 releases, support for your own domains will appear, as is the case with XMPP; so, at least, it was promised by the developers in a chat with them.

The ability to temporarily disable / delete an application - the first is useful, for example, in the case of an extremely strong DDoS, while all data is stored, as well as it itself, only incoming / outgoing requests are disabled. If the application has been removed, the
AppID will not be reused . When deleted, it is queued and deleted after a couple of days, judging from my attempt. Ie, you can cancel the deletion, if that.

Storage statistics is a super function, or rather an integer API, which allows you to see the total number of objects, the size of the storage, the number of model objects, etc. etc. And it is possible to look at the stat in the admin panel with pictures, or you can get it in the application via a request to the repository.

A quick glance at the PythonSDK code revealed that in the Image API, in the constructor, it was possible to get an image via blob_key. This gives great hope for the next version of support for “storage of large files” (in external storage (gdrive?) Called “blobstore” in the comments for blob_key is a link).
It is also seen from the analysis of the code that preparations are underway for managing queues (deleting tasks, clearing a queue, etc.), preparing for MapReduce (the queues are just necessary for the map functionality), and also for supporting oAuth in UserAPI. Also visible is the work in support of cursors and some CompiledQuery, apparently repeated repetitive requests to the repository will be executed faster.
