They were supposed to be added. Rob Giardina submitted an Emacs 23 patch two
years ago that integrates the functionality of both in a better way even than
the separate libraries dired-details[+].el. 

I don't think any reason was ever given for why the patch wasn't incorporated
(committed). RMS asked for comment on the merged code, but no one ever answered
his request (on emacs-devel, at least). The last time I ping'ed the list about
this was 2008-07 - I never got an answer either.
