Pandoc's PDF output option just does simple stuff. If you need to run biblatex (or biber or whatever), then produce latex and make the PDF yourself (I'd use a Makefile for this). We figure that anyone who wants to use bibtex will know enough about LaTeX to do that. Could pandoc do it? Well, it adds a lot of complexity, determining whether bibtex needs to be run. And how do you know what bibtex-like program to run? (With biblatex I like using biber, but you can also use bibtex.) Too much complexity, I thought. LaTeX experts don't need pandoc to produce the PDF.
