layer 7 is expensive cpu and throughput wise. However one solution fits all applications, which makes it easy for the bean counters to pay for layer 7. Most LVS users have found that the problem they initially thought could be solved at layer 7, could be solved at layer 4 with a bit of application rewriting, or some other clever modification of the system (eg apache modules, database replication.) LVS is for the people who don't want to shell out a lot of money. Writing code in LVS to handle layer 7 would be difficult for the small number of people that need it.
