FYI: Tasks are finally being decoupled from App Engine into their own standalone service (similar to Datastore before it).

Currently Alpha: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/alpha/tasks/

(I work for GCP)

A bit off topic, but do you know if there has been any discussion to bring the search API to a standalone service?

Not sure, and I can't talk about things that aren't public anyway :)

GCP and Elastic did partner to offer hosted Elasticsearch though it's not a fully managed service: https://www.elastic.co/about/partners/google-cloud-platform
