in the case of pdfimport, isn't there a potential licensing problem
because it uses GPL-licensed xpdf/poppler code?

 I confess to having no clue about .oxt whatsoever, but assuming that now the 
pdfimport extension is binary code that eventually ends up dlopened by the 
soffice.bin process, how does turning it into a normal LO component, which is 
binary code that eventually ends up dlopened by the soffice.bin process, 
change anything?

It doesn't. poppler is used out-of-process either way.
