After some discussion, and research, I'm rejecting this bug. In normal
operation, pdflatex should not embed the so-called "base 14" fonts.
You can do it on a file-per-file basis if you really do need them
embedded:

And as you note, you can configure your own install to do it by just
editing a configuration file.
Making this the Ubuntu default would be wrong.
** Changed in: tetex-base (Ubuntu)
Status: Unconfirmed => Rejected
