This is wrong: the main functionality is available even without
libgd-gd2-perl installed.  Just some additional tools do not work.

There are many use cases that do not need libgd-gd2-perl at all, for
example libsql-translator-perl is recommended by libclass-dbix-perl and
a dependency of libdbicx-testdatabase-perl.  In addition the package
already recommends libgd-gd2-perl (or a variant), so it is already
there by default when you install libsql-translator-perl.

As I don't plan to change this, I'm marking this bug as wontfix.
