Yeah, we've escalated to the Twitter folks on our end. It's tough on our end because we don't have a list of IP ranges. I think that the Twitter API folks need to start parsing the app-id portion of User- Agent for their rate-limiting and blacklists for the set of external IPs that GAE users - I'll try to communicate that to the resources we have.
We've worked around it ourselves by putting together an external Twitter API proxy based on nginx. If anyone is interested in the Twitter4J patches required to sign OAuth requests for one host, but deliver them to a proxy, let me know.
