So what exactly is the cut and dry line between what Google and Nokia should provide.. and what it's ok for Non-Google or Non-Nokia developers to provide?

I mean.. if the functionality is obtainable from somewhere... then the "phone" can do it...

Yes, but If coders loose interest, then you have nothing. I find great that people could participate and create super power full apps (or port them, like midnight commader) but a company can not say "Ok, here is my new device, it has no MMS support, but be calm, someone while do it and will put it in extras-devel, you can beta test it any time you want. Have fun".
