The fact that Google has such poorly drafted terms of service as to even make this discussion possible, and that we basically have to resort to what we suspect Google will do.

It could be that the clause you're worried about is the one that's there to allow promotion of user photos in picasa or when they "feature" a video on youtube or add it to the top lists.
I agree though that it's unfortunate such wording is used when it comes to the cloud storage service. I'd rather google have a base policy that applies to all services then a much shorter "add-on" for each specific service which explicitly adds or removes terms as needed for that service. Then it'd be clearer why terms are present.
Although I use gmail, I'm not sure I'd fancy google indexing my personal data when it comes to cloud storage. I think I'll stick with DropBox for now.
