Keep in mind that selecting based on like can be a resource-intensive process for large tables (you have to examine every record rather than look at an index). They probably left it out until they saw what kind of load they would be dealing with on GAE. Plus, Google uses a distributed file system. It could be the case that a simple "like" query could request multiple files from multiple computers. That scenario would be a bottleneck nightmare.
