I admit to not having been through all of the Java documentation on
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/. I have, however, been through
the Python stuff extensively and never came across anything that
suggests "framing the login page is strongly discouraged". In fact,
some information on recommended HTML usage would be a very welcome
addition to the Google App Engine Docs.
I also was unable to find anything to suggest there was a problem with
the TOS. I'm not modifying anything from Google nor am I usurping or
reverse engineering or bypassing any Google interfaces. In fact, I am
trying desperately to use a Google interface as-is and in such a
manner as is not confusing to my user population.
The frame/object *is* being served from the
google.com domain. I have
no desire to nor have I made any attempt to bypass that. Depending on
the browser, there are multiple ways of verifying the source of the
frame. For example, IE's "Properties" and Chrome's "Inspect Element"
clearly show the source address.
Finally, if you have alternatives to suggest, I welcome them. I'm just
trying to do what's best for my users while staying within the limits
of the tools you provide. As evidenced by other contributors to this
thread, you can see that I am not alone in this endeavor.
