Adding an option to boot directly to big picture mode would be a huge problem and the Steam Windows client automatically adds firewall exceptions etc for games that you install.

Since I mainly use Linux my Windows 7 PC is basically a Steam box already.

For what it's worth, there actually is an option to boot directly to Big Picture mode.

Likewise, my Windows 7 PC runs Steam only.
