Well, I just delved in and tried CalDAV syncing. It was, as you say, a little rough. In the end, I bought BusyCal and I have to say it's excellent. Once I was confident that Google Calendar had the definitive calendar data, I backed up my calendars on my Mac, then deleted them all from the sidebar, one by one, fired up BusyCal and put in my Google credentials -- and within 5 minutes I was back to where I was with Spanning Sync.
The one missing piece is contacts -- built-in contact syncing with Mountain Lion is pretty crappy in comparison to Spanning Sync. It regularly strips out contact photos, and I've seen that Sync Resolver thing more times than I care to count. I'd love to find a solution for that.
