The problem being that most drm-free ePubs around are also available as drm-free Mobipocket.
Anyone with ePub that they've removed the DRM from will also be savvy enough to convert to Mobipocket format if they want to switch to Kindle.
For the average punter with DRMed ePubs, providing drm-free ePub support would do no good at all.
