At the expense of having yet another application to maintain.

If someone has a strong desire for it, by all means do it. I would just
caution that it implies specific dedication to port all new features to
yet another application.

Speaking of which, I thought I remember someone already poking at a Mac
OS X client... let me see if I can find it.

I wasn't able to find it off-hand. I believe it was based on some other
popular Mac client. I *think* it was Versions:
  http://versionsapp.com/

However, that name is *awful* for searching.

Anyway, I suppose it became vaporware since it doesn't seem to be active
enough to have continued attention.
