They do offer it but the recent SW glitch has rendered them useless so they stopped. It has nothing to do with idling. And most of them have timers and will shit the car off after a certain period of time. Idling for 5-10 min isn't going to hurt anything.

I love the idea of remote start. Great way to cool or heat up your car in the extreme temps
