Bisq already supports some base currencies other then BTC, mainly Litecoin and Dash.  
I am not sure why Ethereum wasn’t added, but I assume it is because it causes more of development effort and devs decided to focus on other features at the moment.

Also, Ethereum had a lot of problems in the past with security of multisignature transactions, so that might also be a reason why it wasn’t given the priority in development.
