There is a problem: apt-get is closely tied to the Debian practice of dependency management. Slackware will allow you to install almost any .tar.gz - creating a full dependency managed solution for Slackware would be significantly harder tthan simply copying over apt code. The price of end user convenience is constraint on what is feasible/what is allowed in packagoing, documentation, file system layout ...
