One simple but less-than-ideal solution is to setup a light weight
reverse http proxy on a server that has a non-blacklisted ip, but has
no restrictions when connecting to GAE. This would definately work,
but there are two major disadvantages:

1. You pay for the 3x the bandwidth. Going into the reverse proxy,
going out, and again into GAE.
2. Additional latency/less scalability.
