heard about this looked at this don't get your hopes up. it is for indie games and until ff becomes and indie game it won't help. i imagine they will restrict it so mods can't get in as that won't net them any cash they will lose moeny instead.

whats the diff between an indie game and a mod? one costs money and the other does not?

actually 1 bigger more important difference, valve can make money off of an indie. (by either selling the source engine or selling there services such as steamworks, steam workshop, etc...) where as a mod valve can't make any money.

this is the real reason why they no longer support mods they feel it doesn't profit them.
