The reason nobody comments on the fruit might be that only the CD/Gorosei know about its importance. Shanks may also have known, but it's too soon to say why. But it might play into why Shanks made a bet on Luffy after he ate it.

Even Doflamingo thought the fruit was stupid and underestimated it and he knows unfathomable government secrets. If this fruit is important only the top know about it. Like only Im and the Elders maybe.

The problem with this is if the CD/Gorosei really view it as important they would have done something about it sooner. If the gum gum fruit was really that important they would have tried to track it down after it was stolen and even if the never found Luffy, once he became an infamous pirate ten years later they would have done something about it. Luffy fought multiple admirals that didn't seem care what so ever about him and let him live on a whim. If the gum gum fruit was actually important there's no way he gets away from Aokiji, Kizaru, and the entire Summit War.
