Tom, 
The files I'm searching for in datastore viewer were finalized, and I was 
able to search for and find more recent finalized blobs using SELECT * FROM 
__BlobFileIndex__ WHERE __key__=KEY('__BlobFileIndex__', 'SoMeKeyHere');
and for still writable this works: 
SELECT * FROM __BlobFileIndex__ WHERE __key__=KEY('__BlobFileIndex__', 
'writable:SoMeKeyHere');
However, for the keys of the missing file, the query in the datastore 
viewer returns "name must be under 500 bytes."  Those >500 byte keys were 
successful for accessing/writing to the original files with my AppEngine 
code before they were finalized, so why is this length a problem now?  Or 
was exceedingly long key generation part of the Files API bug?  I still 
need to access those files, since they took a lot of expensive backend time 
to generate them.  Thanks!  -Eric
