No, it should not.
The Steam integration is there to keep the community together which is EXACTLY what this will achieve.
Look at Red Orchestra, Killing floor, CSS and TF2 to name a few, they use Steam exclusively for multiplayer and work fine.
Much better than having to install 3rd party hacks with everyone scattered everywhere.
For 128 player support, perfect matchmaking/lobbys are required and Stemworks integration will go someway to achieving that.
Also, Ubisoft could have insisted on their own DRM, then you would be really upset - lol
