Baloo developper has created this patch.
So it was required and there is never optional so no it's not a bug.
Perhaps you need a feature but it's not a bug because never supported.

So I will look at for kf5 but not for 4.14. I will not break all for it.
If you don't want it. remove akonadi_baloo_indexer.

I don't know why it reported it as optional but it's not my problem.
If you want to open a bug report about it, report to kdelibs
