Without this package, KDE apps won't play any h264 videos (as long as you're using the phonon gstreamer backend, and not the vlc one, but the former is the default). Firefox won't either, so yeah, this is kind of important to have back by release time. Could you not build the version of ffmpeg/libav bundled with the gst-ffmpeg source, and statically link it?
