Nvidia actually provides drivers for FreeBSD, which have worked well for me so far. Nothing on the ATI side, though.

And I don't think the users of other BSDs have much need for 3D acceleration..

Eh? I run OpenBSD as a "desktop" and I use 3D acceleration to play 3D games and all that stuff. Even playing videos these days requires DRI support in the kernel. With a bit of careful hardware selection, 3D acceleration works out of the box on OpenBSD.
