That's what I thought at first, but it's different. pacman db doesn't contain runtime stuff, it's a description of the currently installed packages. It's a bit like putting os-release in /usr/lib.
I htink you are right about the local DB (/var/lib/pacman/local). However, /var/lib/pacman/sync should probably stay in /var (I don't need a rw root FS to resync package DB). Anyway, I think you should open a feature request at the bugtracker.
