(You can see an example of this here… http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/google-v3-alloverlays.html) We use the obliques in another area of our site; but we can’t use them in our main map because it causes our WMS layers to be misaligned.  I couldn’t find a way to shut these off in OpenLayers proper, so I ended up adding mapObject.setTilt(0); after the creation of the Google mapObject.  I’m guessing some people will want to keep the oblique imagery, though.  So is there a plan to add an option to turn the oblique imagery on/off in 2.11? 

Since the first 2.11 RC went out earlier this morning,  we're now beyond the point
where we expect to add anything other than bugfixes for regressions. Seems like a 
reasonable thing to document, though.
