I'm not sure if there are any regressions compared to openjpeg1 but it looks like Fedora does this by using the configure option --enable-libopenjpeg=openjpeg2.

Imagemagick package uses openjpeg2 as well.

I don't see any advantage switching to openjpeg2. Upstream is still recommending openjpeg(1).

If I remember correctly, that was the recommendation until the following bug was fixed:
https://github.com/uclouvain/openjpeg/issues/254

But Ok :)
Feel free to close this bug report if you wish.
Better stay on the safe side since poppler build system chooses openjpeg1 with both installed.

Currently I see no goal for Arch to drop openjpeg(1) at all. And I couldn't find any advantage for using openjpeg2 over openjpeg(1)
in speed or image quality. So I'm for staying on the safe side and keep it until you show any advantage in this transition.
