Dropping Google API key support from Arch packages will
also affect libreoffice packages. Removing the keys from
Libreoffice packages will make it loose access to Google drive.

Disappointing doesn't really catch it tho. If it would be just about the
sync functionality: so be it. But crippling the API usage on a level
that rips out especially things like the safe browsing fu

That email won't be enough if it only takes google one more email to
