The solution is pushed into Global Availability build 28.6.
The Previewed Page is now the default option for the dialog.
Here is an updated Help article:https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/importing-pdf-files.html
Congratulations, folks! Took us 5.5 years to get it!

With Illustrator CC 2018 it is not possible to place any other page of a multiple-page pdf than the first page. In CS6 it was possible to place any page desired, but now the necessary dialogue is missing.
But I already found the alternative: Simply open the document instead. With the revamped open-dialogue ist is possible to chose an array of pages and with an extra checker you can simply place them in your document, instead of opening them. Hence for pdf´s it is wiser to use the open-dialogue to place pages. That is a little weird. But I love the new open-dialogue for pdf´s that gives the opportunity to place multiple pages of pdf´s in one go.
But mayby Adobe should think about integrating this into the place-dialogue and not to hide it as a checker in the open-dalogue.
But still: Great idea!
Thank you!
You could top this if you gave the opportunity to create outlines of the fonts you do not have installed on your computer when opening a pdf. Means if you do not have the font, you could decide to create outlines instead, in order to be able to open the document in Illustrator.
This would be a really cool feature.
