I think what makes me nervous about it is that I can't even control my own sites any more if I use Google's DNS, and get the "mysterious Google lockout with no recourse".

That makes no sense at all. How would using Google DNS remove your control of your own domain? Google DNS is just a resolver, it's not an authoritative DNS. If you were "locked out" for some reason you could just go back to using your ISP dns servers. Where's the problem?

Err... sorry - let's chalk that up to flu leftovers in my head. I was thinking of a Google DNS service for one's own domains ala EveryDNS.
