--- Comment #1 from David Hurka <david.hurka at mailbox.org> ---
Sorry, but your request seems unrealistic to me.

PDF means portable, yes.
But that does not prevent authors from intentionally creating bad documents.

The content of this document is “Please wait ...”.
It is hard to guess what Adobe Reader would show instead.
In this particular case it may be enough to implement XFA.
But in other cases Okular would need to guess how Adobe Reader’s implementation
of XFA would behave.
That would be like magic.
