Google has just added native support for JWT to Google App Engine.  Here is
the documentation:

Our hope is to work with other players in the cloud computing space to
improve some elements of cloud security by using PKI, JWT & OAuth2 for
interop between our systems.

Based on past industry discussion, we wroteup a description of some of the
general interop use-cases:

While this new feature in Google App Engine is a significant step for
Google, we realize there is more to do on our side such as adding support
for JWT assertions in our recently announced OAuth2 support for Google
APIs<http://googlecode.blogspot.com/2011/03/making-auth-easier-oauth-20-for-google.html>.
 However we would prefer to get feedback from this group on a standard
approach, including around key rotation/management.
