Per the discussion in this blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/inkscape/+spec/vectorize-embedded-fonts it looks like poppler is capable of "vectorizing the embedded font and converting the text to a series of cloned paths" correct? If so, turning that ability on as an "Import Text as Path" option in the import PDF dialog would close this bug report, would it not? This seems like a pretty simple fix to implement.
