In the case of Yices and Vampire, the gain would be minimal: Without 
components, users must specify an environment variable (as specified in 
"sledgehammer.doc"). This is, of course, less uniform, but hardly more 
difficult than running some script and then registering the component with 
Isabelle (by editing "~/.isabelle/etc/settings" or 
"~/.isabelle/etc/components"). Also, hardly anybody needs Yices, and most users 
are happy to invoke Vampire remotely (and E, SPASS, and Z3 locally, keeping 3 
cores busy already).
