Wow, thanks for this tip! I've been meaning to explore App Engine, and this gave me even more reason to. I just tested it all out and it works like a charm. I was worried it wouldn't allow the quick turnaround, but you can use GWT hosted mode with it. They did a really sweet job with this.
Thank you also for filing the bug report. You got the gist of it. It's not just generics, it's other 1.5+ features too (like "for each" loops) but it's probably not a huge deal.
