No fundamental reason not to.  Probably more directed by the rationale 
to not ship what is easily (for whatever definition of "easily") 
generated.  And I gather that if you use the SDK in the "intended" way, 
the included makefiles take care of header generation just fine.  (I do 
not argue that the way the SDK was designed to be used is necessarily 
useful, however.)  Plus, as soon as you want to introduce your own 
UNOIDL constructs, you need to use cppumaker etc. anyway.

Feel free to go ahead, I would say.
