bedops support gzip/bzip files on starch but not when merging BED files.
Would it be possible to add this feature?

Thanks for the request. You can get that effect using process substitutions in bash.
Something along these lines will do what you want:

bedops -m <(zcat file1.bed.gz) <(zcat file2.bed.gz) <(zcat file3.bed.gz) > answer.bed
