I suspect the primary answer is "nobody who's willing to
maintain, test and update the resulting binary blobs has
stepped forward to say they want to do so" :-)

(I think that shipping them in the QEMU tree would be
nice but is principally a convenience for our direct
users, since distros are going to want to build their
own ROM blobs from source anyway.)
