Unfortunately this would incentivize the rest of the world to start
*adding* GAE headers to work around maps' ratelimits.  But combined
with knowledge of the IP pool that appengine fetches from, it's a
great idea.

BTW, a proxy is pretty trivial to set up.  And you can use it for
other services that have rate issues as well - I've run into several.
