Reverse proxy Google App Engine and Google Accounts authentication.

I have requirements to run a "walled garden" wifi portal page that should be hosted on App Engine. Unfortunately, the captive portal software can only whitelist by IP, requiring that we setup a nginx server that reverse proxies to appname.appspot.com.

The app also has authentication via Google Accounts. What is the best way to handle this using a reverse proxy (or other) solution given the constraints of the captive portal software?
