Google has had this "Beta-4-Ever" frame of mind for years now. They
virtually never release a final product; thus effectively covering
their 'ass' with the word "BETA" when something goes wrong or doesn't
work as expected or required by RFC's, etc.

In any case, this little tidbit looks rather interesting.
