The thing is, at least in my opinion, it would be wrong to give users modelling features that "probably" won't transfer over to most other packages. The reason is because you will just end up confusing them and causing needless frustration when they open their model in, let's say, Maya, and can't figure out why their model doesn't subdivide like they want.
It's asking for alot of headache.
Don't get me wrong, I would love this feature, but if my efforts can't be moved over to any other package than it is simply a waste of my time even considering it.
The reason why it works in Blender (from the standpoint of it simply existing) is because Blender is an all in one package, it's self contained within its own pipeline. Blender can have features that don't transfer simply because they don't need to.
Same with Maya, Lightwave, Max, etc etc etc.
Just food for thought.
