I don't expect you to practice precognition.  But it may be possible
to deduce something by putting their announcements together with other
known facts.  Maybe we could figure out questions to ask them.

That is a significant fact.  It means that using Gmail in the free
world won't become entirely impossible.  Thanks.
 
So I modify the question:

   Will Gmail in the future permit access from the Free World
   to read mail with a free local MUA in any manner whatsoever?
   
And there is another followup question:

Is it possible to log in on basic HTML view
passing via a proxy that will hide your actual location?
It is possible that basic HTML view won't allow this.
