Is it so vaguely undervalued or does it just work so well that it does not need too much improvement?

Due to its global importance, even if its security record was impeccable there would still be a huge incentive to constantly audit and test OpenSSL.

It is critical for the future of the Internet that OpenSSL (or any alternative that might show up) does not have any other Heartbleed bug.
