VisualBuilder vs Google Application Engine

$

Hi,
I am evaluating SmartGWT 4.1. I am very much impressed by the VisualBuilder and by the concept of using Balsamiq to create mock screens.

I made some studies and now can create and maintain screens that fit my purpose. They run fine in development mode on my local PC.

I intend to deploy my application to Google's cloud infrastructure. The gae-cloudSQL sample application compiles, deployes and runs fine.

In other words I do not think I had a major configuration issue in my developer environment or with my access rights at Google.

Problem comes when I try dynamically load a screen into the slightly enhanced gae-cloudSQL application on GAE.

I get a js compilation error during deployment attempt:
"/head_content.jsp" not found"

Yes, that is true, \gae-cloudSQL\war\GAECloud_js\tools\bmml\index.jsp really attempts including head_content.jsp that cannot be found nowhere at all.

I failed deploying the app to GAE unless I completely deleted the js files that implement Balasmiq import, VisualBuilder, DataSource Editor... In other words practically only an LGPL version of SmartGWT could be deployed. However I like and need the goodies of the professional and the enterprise version.

My question: Is SmartGWT Pro, Power or Enterprise version supposed to work on Google Application Engine?

If not, which other cloud platform is suggested?

Does anybody have experiences in this area?
