ofbiz, is the hosting and 
maintainence, like backup.

Most hosting for java applications, like ofbiz is about $400.00/month. 
that is hard to compete with stores like yahoo for $45-100 month.
When I express to an business owner they can use their DSL, and the 
chores involved, they usually respond in the negative.

However if you want to have this integrated. create a Jira for new 
feature and put you links in there. if enough people vote for it, or 
someone else get interested that will be the place to discuss it and 
have some progress.
