I’m not sure that it’s really going to matter. Google GMail has the best SPAM elimination in the world right now. I never receive any SPAM so it wouldn’t really matter if someone had my GMail address.

[...] There are three minor problems for me. One, I can’t stop Google from indexing my pages. That is really annoying. So, don’t put a ton of personal stuff on you page. The second problem is that, as you can see here and here, it can give you spam. (A spam ticker is at http://arbyntest.googlepages.com/home). But, Geocities does the same thing for Yahoo! users (you name is geocities.com/yahoo email address here). The third is that it doesn’t integrate with any other Google products (yet). So, Picasa and Hello won’t upload to Google Pages, and Blogger won’t post to Google Pages either. But, I’m sure these services will soon be tweaked to fix that. [...]

I have seen false positives with Google spam protection as well as spam which creeped in. Also it filters out zipped files etc. I wouldn’t rate it very highly.
In any case no spam protection system can justify exposing email addresses to add to the already massive spam problem.
All they need(ed) to do is to just allow users to choose their webpage name prefix like blogger.com service.

As of yet, I don’t see any way that harvesters could grab more than one address at a time, manual style. Not sure if google pages should be the focus of the spam battle.

Googlepages allow you to create up to two “fake” web addresses (which are unrelated to your email address). I am actually a fake address that leaks no information about my email.
