We looked into Shrapnel hosting the site Last year when we ended up moving it to Ohio. It wasn't a good fit with their business plan. I don't mind, I prefer it the way it is rather then having Shrapnel run it.
There will come a time when Shrapnel will want to consider running game servers as a part of thier business plan. The industry will demand it as more and more game move toward Multiplayer and such.

You could always manage the server Geo, regardless where it is located. Shrapnel could use the fact that they host it as another selling feature for their games.

Sooner or later all, and I do mean all, games will be driven by the demand for multiplayer and Shrapenl as well as other game manufactures will have to wake up and smell the coffee. Why not get an earily jump on the trend and start supporting the genra now?
