No, it's an economical problem and OpenCA should be used by normal companies too. Online-CA vs. offline-CA is not only a question of security it's a question of rentability too. Onlne-CAs are often much more cheaper (TCO) because nobody must move physically to the CA. Several systems give the RA Operator the rights to handle the hole issuing process by himself (see Baltimore and Entrust which have ITSec E3 and Common Criteria EAL3).
