--- Comment #22 from Sachin Garg <sgarg.bugreporter at gmail.com> ---
The feature to save highlighted text in a comment is a killer. Essentially, it
allows the annotations to be extracted out and one gets a nice summary of what
the article says! That summary can then be used without the master document. I
see that PDF-Xchange Editor and Viewer have settings for the same.

Similarly, the ability to save annotations in the PDF is much appreciated.
However, it would be even better if there could be a per-document setting that
could be toggled for the same. It is  extremely tedious to click "Save As ..."
and select a file, when one could simply type "Ctrl+S".

Another challenge with saving it as XML outside the file happened with me. I
had to replace the file multiple times to get a pristine copy only to realise
that the file was clean, but the annotations directory had annotations in it.

I find Okular to be an awesome PDF reader, and also used it on Unity - but we
really need to bring in these features to make it useful in complex workflows
and ensure that GNU/Linux thrives on the desktop.
