Security wise, connecting to Googles secure login is probably one of the most secure things you can do on the net, there are far easier ways to gather peoples personal info *cough* "MONSTER" *cough*
Probably, but even if you don't need a persistent web connection, there'll still be an initial download hit.  Plus, the more "offline" they make it, the less useful it is over MSOffice.

Security wise, it may be over a secure connection, but it's still less secure than working through an internal network (in general).
The other issue is that I don't think many companies fancy the idea of storing sensitive documents on Google's servers.
