Interesting.

Feel free to play with org2blog/atom, and there's a "mob" user on the repo
if you feel like contributing.

Yes, and you don't have to do anything special on Google. It uses the
Atom API thru g-client (elisp software by T V Raman), which is what drags
in the curl and xsltproc dependencies. Those are not special Google
software, but they are non-elisp, non-emacs programs.
My philosophy is to make a package do one thing well. But it leads to
dependencies.
Please let me know if you have any trouble obtaining the g-client version
that supports this.

I tried out mailing to blogger before writing org2blog/atom, but I was
frustrated by the things the mail interface couldn't do.

Right, it does and it does. I'd be interested in a neat solution for
double-titling. Right now I just let org2blog/atom export both.
