What about adding a post_install note to point out that one needs bluez-libs if one wants to use bluetooth to connect?

It seems this is not a big issue anymore, as nautilus depends on gvfs, and gvfs depends on bluez-libs, so you'll have bluez-libs anyway if you have gnome installed.

After clicking through a few houndred ( ;) ) dependencies I found out that you'd still be able to install gnome-pilot without having nautilus installed.
Since most arch users use lightweigth WMs there might be a chance that a couple of them install gnome-pilot to find out that it won't work with bluetooth.
I think mentioning it while installing would be the most appropriate solution.
