I understand what you're saying.
The client is for handling your coins, not handling your money.
I get it.

As the price of Bitcoin isn't material to how it works as a network, the price being added is superfluous to the function of the client.

There's no point to it, iow.

Bad idea to mix decetralized client with cetralized services. What if tomorrow MtGox will be shut down?

I highly doubt that would just randomly happen. But if it does that why there are other trading websites.
And it wouldn't be official. It's not official now for a reason, so why make it official? Just an instruction to do it would allow people to do it if they wanted to.

I'm sure its been discussed before, but would it be possible to add a menu so users can add a link in from any trading system (mtgox etc) so it puts the current BTC price in bitcoin-qt?

Or even a simple instruction on how to add it in in case of an update.
