Google/MS/ should add Dart/Typescript/asm.js/... native runtime for node.js. Will give a major performance boost to backend and developer will still be working in one language.

Yea.. With Managed VMs You can run any VM on the App Engine stack which is f'ing cool. The most obvious use for this is Node IMO, since ppl have gone crazy for that shit. Soon the world will no longer need backend developers or dev ops.
I have never seen anyone with -1 karma before. Your name said it all: madfarmer. Farmer as in someone managing virtual machine farm.
Managed VMs are not the same thing as AppEngine apps. They are generic vms to run any kind of service that can then be called by your AE apps. It was announced a couple of days ago.
Managed VMs are basically app engine apps that run on a compute engine instance. It gives you the ease of deployment and scaling of App Engine without the limitations of the App Engine sandbox.
It's my understanding that Managed VMs are a type of AppEngine app. They are scaled the same way and have access to the same services like Datastore, memcache, task queues, mail, etc.
It might just be a matter of semantics, but in the link there it makes it sound like a Compute Engine VM with access to AppEngine features.
In the event they did a few days ago, I think it was the managed VM part where they demoed SSHing in and switching some things over from managed to manual, so I imagine it is much closer to compute engine.

+1 exactly right
This is like saying that Dart can be run server side on an EC2 instance. I would like to see Dart (server side) added to the AppEngine supported language list (Go, Python, Java, PHP).

Managed VMs are no different than Amazon or Azure VMs.
