I don't work for Google, but I have a GAE app that sends millions of push notifications out through a few hundred lines of java running on an $11/mo rackspace VPS. You have all the tools available to you, you don't need Google.
Think about this for a moment. Let's say Google gave you access to socket APIs. You still have to write a process that runs on a backend that sends push notifications through a persistent socket connection to apple. It is just as easy to write something that runs on a VPS as it is to write it as a backend task. With the remote API you have the exact same platform calls available. This is a non-issue.
