The FDA is reopening the comment period on the proposed "gluten-free" food labeling rule. Right now, the proposed criteria is that "gluten-free" food can't contain more than 20 parts per million or more of gluten. If I had celiac disease, I wouldn't touch processed foods that are supposedly gluten-free - just stick with real food.
I've dabbled with the Paleo Diet a few times. It's definitely an effective way to get back into shape. One of the main aspects of the diet is to avoid gluten. My asthma also seems to be better when I just eat real food.
The FDA put together a helpful report as well: FDA on Gluten Free.pdf.
