The package "ipython2-notebook" should be enough to open a
notebook with "ipython2 notebook foo.ipynb". Using this
after the first installation however fails due to missing
ipywidgets. It works if I rebuild the package by making
copies of all 6 directories in prepare() instead of just 3.
This makes the package_ipython2-notebook() function look
almost the same as the package_jupyter() function.

You are confused about the purpose of the ipython2-notebook package. To be fair I haven't exactly made it clear what the actual purpose of the package is, but mostly its for third party applications that integrate an ipython shell. It is not for hosting a notebook and the present name is mostly a historical accident.
While your exact issue is not a bug, it does reflect a legitimate documentation and naming issue. So I'm not going to close this immediately.
But the AUR works. Feel free to email me if you have any questions about further stuff.
Still keeping this open because I'm not happy with the ipython2-notebook package.
