Seems like a pretty big project to hook all of the different parts together.
Not what I would call huge, but big enough to be a real time investment, and nobody wants to spend that much of their life reverse engineering and building such a thing only to have it broken whenever Valve changes something.
That, I believe, is why we have no open source Steam clients.
