Why not charge a monthly fee for apps to get a static IP (like Amazon does)? Scarcity of supply seems like a bit of a cop-out to me - it's not apparent that a majority of app engine apps require this support. The customers you're losing because of this, however, are customers that plan to process e-commerce transactions online without looking like a phishing scam. Customers that make money on your service are more likely to spend money on your service.
