/cc @elibixby Do you have any thoughts on the dev exp of configuration / auth?

@jgeewax I'd like to propose asking @mcdonc (one of my partners at Agendaless) to do a four-hour "outside" review of the APIs, and offer a recommendation. He made a well-liked presentation at PyCon 2013 on API design, and might provide some useful insight.

You can ping me and @waprin for devrel review, as we're working on a series of tutorials for python on GCP (similar to these for node).

So far, we've only explored "implicit" configuration (app default credentials), but we can explore other methods too.
