Unfortunately, ipsets still require kernel patching but they are by far
the best mechanism available for maintaining large and/or dynamic sets

Why are ipsets taking so long to become an accepted part of netfilter?

Because the implementor (Jozsef Kadiecsik) wants to make changes before final release but has no time to work on Open Source.
