Nothing further to suggest. If you can't link authentication of a customer
to an entry in Google Contacts, you're going to be stuck.
After that, you'll have to develop your own Kernel/CustomerUser/Google.pm
 that handles all the OTRS API calls (likely, only read-only search), and
make sure Config.pm sets CustomerUser::Google as the CustomerUser backend.

How to? Up to you.
