@Clint: I'll try to re-summarise the details:

[Test Case] Sometimes after one day, sometimes after one week, the
system indicator will turn red and the Google account will be marked as
needing reauthentication. Time can vary, but any period shorter than one
month is a symptom of the bug.

[Regression Potential] Minimal: the change to the Google plugin (in
account-plugins) simply changes the authentication method, in a way that
is well-documented. The change in signon-plugin-oauth2 affects only
those accounts/providers which use the OAuth refresh tokens -- which is
only Google, at the moment -- and in a way that can't possibly break any
existing functionality; if the new code had some mistake, the refresh
token would be unusable and the system would automatically fall back to
requesting a new access token (which is exactly what happens now, with
this bug).

I'll try to find why the account-plugins package was not uploaded;
indeed, both are required in order to fix this bug.
