I believe that libreoffice-bin users would find it helpful to have a post-install notice to let them know that the standard PDFimport functionality is available only in the non-bin package.

That would probably reduce confusion for those people (such as for myself and [1]) who wouldn't know the background information about why PDFimport was left out of libreoffice-bin.

If a post-install notice is added, perhaps it would also be worth noting that the app-text/pdf2oo package could be an alternative for the missing PDFimport functionality.

Nah after thinking not worth the effort.

4.0 will have hard-dependency over the poppler so it will be moot.

When 4.0 binary  is generated it will contain the poppler.
