If I recall correctly myself (getting old!), Google has had the ability to build your own custom image since GCE went GA 2.5 years ago. Now, admittadly, it took a while to get IAM and VPC going, but we done did it now!

I'd love to hear what other boring stuff has been a showstopper for you, in case we missed something dumb :)
