I don't doubt that a community development has insufficient resources to tackle this on its own.

You have to take notice, I think, when such successful organisations are heading in a certain direction.

I begin to wonder, when people no longer need to download, install and update, such software themselves, how many will continue to do so. I tried Google's test spreadsheet briefly and it was very easy to use.

This framework will be arguably dificult to move to a HTML toolkit. Most OOo people focus on having compatibility with this suites thanks to the adoption of OpenDocuments.

A gap in between is webservices and how can OOo can operate as desktop client for this new web applications.

Agreed, its a resources issue. There are not unlimited resources. OOo
has to decide what it can afford to achieve. Since the Google seem
committed to ODF we should get web based applications that interoperate
reliably with OOo so why reinvent the wheel? Let some others pay for
some of the development costs that free up office productivity.
