Short answer: yes, people are working on it.

There's been a lot of interest lately, and some very good work too[1], to
make Calc a great product for statistics, financial calculations,
computational finance, etc.. There's a lot of good work coming in
LibreOffice 4.2.

Also as a wish for LibreOffice 4.3 I would love to see new core Calc
functions like:

=GoogleFinance("GOOG")
=GoogleFinance("GOOG"; "volume")
=YahooFinance("YHOO"; "eps")
etc.
