When you have SELECT * FROM table WHERE condition, the condition is always local, i.e. it is applied to each individual record. The check one record is independent on the check on other records. Therefore I believe LIKE, OR, IN, etc should scale on GAE as well as AND,=,<,>. I hope we will see them soon.
