Probably not considering the blob talks to Jacquard's app. Then again, you are part of an incredibly insignificant tiny minority of prospective customers, completely out of that project's target market.

All in all, as someone who might want to use this product one day, I'd rather Google not spend their project's resources on never-buyers like yourself and instead spend those adding features and driving cost down for people that could be genuinely interested.

Haha, feel free to want that and then 3 years later the big G closing down your service and you wont be able to use it at all.

3 years is giving too much credit, we should be talking in terms of months

Sure. And drop all open protocols and support only the proprietary ones while they're at it?

Not sure what your point is but in that case I'd rather go the obvious third way which is that they would support a subset of open protocols instead of all of them.
