Ralf, it's amazing how hard you try to make Fedora an unpleasant place for
packagers.

Mamoru, I agree, in particular to the doc subpackage. boost-doc, gtkmm24-docs,
qt-doc are precedents. For example for gtkmm the generated documentation is
also split. Since doxygen documentation can become quite large, it's often
useful to have a separate package for it. As noarch package it can save on the
mirrors, and it can save space and download time on machines where you need
stage as a devel dependency, but are not actively developing against it.
For the pkgconfig files: they are working. Yes, requires would be a nicer
option, and filing a bug to add them after the package is added is fine. But I
take this with the "worse is better" mentality: it's better to have the package
in the repository, especially since this is working and just not perfect, and
then improve it. But not reason for the unnecessary fuss about minor issues!
