Why aren't there good longbows in BG2?
There already are plenty of mods for this. SoD2BG2 does a bit, bringing IWD longbows like Sseth into BG2 (basically a longbow Tuigan), and an upgrade to the SoD Bow of the Banshee (+4, 20% chance of 4d4 damage party-safe banshee wail on hit). The Item Upgrade Mod has Teleomortis, a +4 infinite ammo bow (it also has throwing spears, which are cool). It also lets you upgrade the ToB infinite quivers to +3, which helps slings/xbows/shortbows as well, but is still useful to longbows.

Are there any weapon expansion mods
Forgotten Armament and Underrepresented Items are both great mods. They do a lot to make different weapon groups more viable, so taking halberd or bastard sword proficiency feels like a better option.

BGII EE essential mods
For item mods, I like Forgotten Armament and Underrepresented Items, which port items from NWN2 and Icewind Dale, respectively. Good for fleshing out certain weapon categories that are otherwise a little sparse (clubs, bastard swords, etc).
What are some alternatives?
Solaufein - Weimer's classic mod changes Solaufein into a joinable NPC for BG2EE and ToB. Revised EE version.
Black-Hearts-EET
Tweaks-Anthology - The Tweaks Anthology is a WeiDU compilation of nearly 200 components of cosmetic changes, house rules, and other tweaks. Some of these were fan requests, others are needed changes, and others simply make dealing with the more irritating aspects of the game engine easier. Each component can be installed separately so the player can pick and choose only which ones they wish to install.
The_Boareskyr_Bridge_Scene - A mod for Siege of Dragonspear that gives more impact to the important scene at Boareskyr Bridge.
SoD-to-BG2EE-Item-Upgrade - Imports more Siege of Dragonspear items into logical (to me at least) locations in BG2:EE during the Shadows of Amn campaign. They are attainable in a variety of ways – quest rewards, drops from enemies killed, shops, and containers.
Almaterias_Restoration_Project - The younger, brasher sidekick of Unfinished Business for Baldur's Gate II.
Forgotten-Armament - Add new items into BGEE, BG2EE, and EET
Black-Hearts-BG2 - Black Hearts for BG2 (separate install)
bg2-wildmage - Wild Mage additions mod for Baldur's Gate 2
TowerOfDeception - Tower of Deception for BG2:ToB, BG2:EE and EET
BG1NPC - The BG1 NPC Project adds a great deal of content by expanding the depth of character and levels of interaction with the NPCs from the Baldur's Gate game. Requires Tutu, BGT, or BGEE.
Back_to_Brynnlaw - A Questmod for Baldur's Gate II (BGII, BGT, BGII:EE, EET)
