I would certainly welcome an official answer too. As I have been following this
report for a long time I think there are two issues. (I right now have no time
to find the sources for this, sorry)

1. libpoppler was created with the intention of a readonly library therefore it
does not support writing back to the pdf stream. The architecture is not well
suited for that. There is another pdf library being developed, but in very
early stages which should remedy this issue. I forgot the name, but I think it
is even sposored by the FSF.

2. The okular developers are satisfied enough with the situation as it is
today. As they do it in their spare time they do not want to spend too much
time on this.

I have read at several places that people are willing to spent money on this to
get it working, but as far as I know there has been no coordinated effort yet.
And offered to do the necessary programming.
