How about letting the user choose? Because if Adobe stopped acting like they know better they could solve this with one click:
> You are using Pantone colors, but you don't have a license for them.
> [X] Replace with a similar CMYK value, obtained from printing the color in Bob's old home printer.
> [ ] Purchase rights to the Pantone library.
Now the x% of designers who really need Pantone colors can pay for them and the remaining (100-x)% users can use their files in peace. This is similar to what Inkscape does when converting a PDF with unknown fonts, and it's (IMO) a much better solution.
