I've been waiting for this for a while. Although git is my preferred method of working, for people who aren't technical and who just can't do stuff from terminal, I think this is a great alternative.
http://www.site44.com/ does the same thing for Dropbox.
However, Google Drive might has usage restrictions, so this is probably only for low traffic sites.
Is this sanctioned by Google?

Sorry guys but I think GitHub/Bitbucket beat you to the punch, not to mention all the PaaS apps out there. Hosts more than css, html, js (for output) Custom domains Collaboration via revision control. I see zero reason to ever use this when there are so many betters tools out there .
Like how if you're an office manager and you finally got used to using Docs for word processing and spreadsheets but now wanted to make a webpage to send out a message about the office party, this would be a good option.
Or if you're the outreach coordinator at your local church group and having been using Gmail all the time to chat and setup group communication for awhile this would be really easy for you to get started at making a webpage to talk about the recent retreat.
Or if you're a high school student and you wanted to let people in your neighborhood know that you're a go-getter that's capable of walking their dogs, this would be a good option to make a webpage out of.
This is more for those that switched over from Microsoft Office world and it's more of a direct competitor to grab use cases for Apple/iWeb.
Nifty. Note, however, that if you want to use it to share javascript demos or something, and you're on a google apps domain that forces https, you might hit something similar to "[blocked] The page at https://googledrive.com/whatever ran insecure content from http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js . So you'll have to include your own copy of jQuery or Require or whatever.
If you use Google's hosted libraries, you can embed it like so, and it should seamlessly work over SSL.
