Sure, if someone is willing to do it.

In my experience ffmpegthumbs is a bit faster because it uses ffmpeg
directly instead of having to call mplayer for each file.

It looks like there was some interest in ffmpegthumbs replacing
mplayerthumbs when it was introduced
(http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.kde.devel.general/61129/). Some
distros such as Fedora appear to no longer ship mplayerthumbs too.
