How about instead those extra binary files or plugins are split into another package called package1-plugins and have libsomething as plain dependency? Then on package1 installation, pacman should say something like: Recommended packages: package1-plugins for blah blah functionality.
This is known as 'debian'.

I think it's overkill and offers no practical benefit.
Agreed. Just because we are now able to split packages, we should not overdo it like other distributions have.
