I'd like to make use of libpaper in Ghostscript, Cups and LibreOffice. So I will move it to extra and will maintain it there.
Also I was told that Callibre can make use of certain libraries in future versions that are already part of the internal LibreOffice sources. I will do some investigation and will decide if we make them system libs so we can do shared linking to these libs.
Please have a look at the PKGBUILD, what internal sources we will use in LibO 4.2 :

It totally makes sense to create packages for libraries which are used in Calligra and LibreOffice. Creating packages for obscure libraries used only in LibreOffice seems like an unnecessary maintain burden, I just wonder why you don't use boost and rhino from our repos.
When I used to contribute to LibreOffice, I've build flawlessly against our repo's boost version.

I have to agree with this. My two cents would be on the basis of organization and consistency throughout the repository, although I'm likely underinformed.
