What do you do for backing up AppEngine data?

>From what I can see, there is no simple way to say "back up everything in
this GAE project" with a button-click or API call, nor even a way to do
this for most specific data-storage mechanisms.

E.g., Datastore has a  backup tool which  has serious bugs that make it
inoperable. Blobstore has no backup mechanism.

Do major users of AppEngine not have off-Google backups? True, GAE deals
with disk failure, but you have to protect against hacker vandalism as well
as  team-member error. (One response I have received is "Don't make
mistakes." I won't bet on that.)

The Google Data Liberation Front
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Data_Liberation_Front> seems to have
missed GAE.

So, do you make do without? Do you write your own tools to backup (and
regularly restore), where Google tools are lacking?
