UPDATE: Since writing this, I uploaded some test code that includes a static file of about 1.8 MB and had no difficulty in running GWT- generated Javascript code that performs a GET on this file. Everything worked fine whether I was accessing the app via the app's own domain name or the appspot subdomain for the app (or the specific version URL, for that matter).
It would still be nice to see these limits documented in writing so as to know whether the fact that this works is a temporary accident or a behavior upon which applications can rely.
