Starting from version 1.63, boost python includes support for numpy arrays. Would it be possible to have python-numpy and python2-numpy as optional dependencies?

Attached you find a patch solving this feature request, you might want to add python-numpy and python2-numpy as optional dependencies.

This is rather confusing since the boost/python/numpy header files are packaged, but the shared libraries aren't.

Yes, the shared libraries should be included as well. Also there seems to be no need to include python(2)-numpy as dependencies, a build dependency is enough. So why not include it in the official package?
