We will do so. :)

Because they're entirely different products :).

BBEdit is a professional tool used both by individuals, and in
collaborative or workgroup environments (departments, labs, etc.). It also
doesn't derive any  intrinsic utility from multiple machines (i.e. there's
no feature which only works if you have copies of the app on more than one
machine).

Yojimbo on the other hand is primarily a personal tool, and also does
derive a good deal of additional utility from being able to exchange info
with other machines via .Mac sync.
