I've pondered this myself, for a long time - since I could use RAD to
build very nice applications using Borland's OWL on Windows For
Workgroups.... it is sad.

But Open Source land is simply too fragmented.  There are too many
database bindings [and RAD requires something like an ORM (think
SQLalchemy)] and far too many GUI toolkits [Qt, Gtk, wx, and the list
goes on and on].

Nothing can muster the gravity required to bring a quality RAD tool into
existence.

I also suspect - seeing some of the articles that float across the
FLOSS-o-sphere mentioning "RAD" - that many Open Source developers have
never had the pleasure [yes, it is a pleasure] of using a professional
RAD tool.
