My guess would be because no developer with the skillet necessary has either been interested or been paid to do it.

It is an open source project at the end of the day, which means the features that get added are those that are wanted by either the developers or the sponsors, not the the general user base

Actually this might be a good idea for kickstarter if anyone with relevant experience is around :) I bet it would not be a problem to raise 200-300K for this

i would definitely contribute.

BTW - elastic.co is just going for an IPO. There's a lot of money in search!
