I am looking for some guidance on the roadmap of the Users API 
<https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/users/>.

The Users API is a great simple API and has served me OK for a while. However, 
I am getting a little bit uneasy with the lack of progress on the following 
issues. I would like to hear from Google whether these issues will be taken 
care of and by when or whether I should invest in some other Google Accounts 
authentication API that will integrate at the same level with GAE. In the 
latter case, what is that API.

Here is my list of issues, most of them with links to the public tracker:

1. Multiple Google users in the same browser session are not supported 
correctly. (see public tracker bugs  9045 
<https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=9045>, 8916 
<https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=8916>)
2. Certain Google authentication workflows lead to errors (see bug 10001 
<https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=10001>)
3. Certain Google App Engine authentication workflows have usability issues 
with small displays (see bug 12537 
<https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=12357>, 4935 
<https://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=4935>)
4. Finally, as my application matures I want to see additional functionality to 
the Users API that has not changed for five years now. For instance, I want to 
know whether a user used 2-step verification to login so that I can restrict 
access based on that information.

I would appreciate a response in public or private. I am willing to sign NDA as 
well because I need to make some decisions on how to proceed.

Thanks,
PK
