"--disable-ext-pdfimport -> --disable-pdfimport" gives the rationale for doing
this: "That commit is part of the plan to turn those extensions that we bundle
anyway into true, non-extension parts of the core code base. The
benefit is that we can get rid of some ugly warts in the code, like
linking most of basegfx's objects into both the basegfx lib and the
pdfimport lib from the PDF Import extension, and that LO start-up, esp.
after version update, becomes less troublesome and potentially faster."
>From my personal notes: "Remaining bundled extensions (apart from
dictionaries) are Presentation Minimizer and Report Builder. Changing them
would require bigger changes (as they have substantial UI that would need to be
reworked), but has less benefit than the others (no hacks to clean up), so
postponed that past 4.0."
