Poppler's non-XFA form support has been improved in 0.22, and because of those
changes it happens that you will be able to share filled form data in this
document with other poppler-based viewers, such as evince. *But* I discourage
you from doing that, because when sometime in the future Poppler will start to
support XFA datasets, it will probably behave like acroread currently does,
i.e. it will show nothing. So my suggestion is to treat all XFA forms as
unsupported, even though they appear to work.

> What will change in the next release is that I will be warned?
Correct. The exact message is "This document has XFA forms, which are currently
unsupported", and it shown instead of the regular one "This document has forms.
Click on the button to interact with them, or use View -> Show Forms.".
