Looks like create_table is called regardless of migrate on GAE:
if migrate or self._adapter.dbengine=='google:datastore':
try:
sql_locker.acquire()
self._adapter.create_table(t,migrate=migrate,
fake_migrate=fake_migrate,
polymodel=polymodel)
GoogleDatastoreAdapter.create_table() itself doesn't seem to do anything
with 'migrate', but not clear if it results in any datastore activity.
Looks like it just creates a gae.Model object:
if not polymodel:
table._tableobj = classobj(table._tablename, (gae.Model, ), myfields)
