Regarding the MD5sum patch to identify documents based on content instead of
based on name, I recommend adding a method to kdelibs because other apps such
as Palapeli from kdegames also have such functionality. It will break for
modified files though, such as audio files with metadata and possibly modified
PDF files in the future. A robust implementation hence requires some
filetype-based logic instead of just MD5.

Regarding the portability of annotations, I've just been directed to this bug
while annotating a PDF for a student. In case the student has Okular, I can now
pass around the .okular archive, or perhaps just the annotation .xml if the
student knows what to do with it.
If the student doesn't have and/or want Okular, and Okular will not save the
annotations within the PDF, would it be easy to at least create a PDF from the
annotations which can be printed as a list with page numbers?
I'm thinking of maybe having some XSL which can output an HTML summary of the
notes or through some QPrinter(?) transformation also PDF.
