--- Comment #18 from Kevin Burton <burton+bugs.kde.org at inputneuron.io> ---
Thanks Nate.

I think one main concern I have is for other users of Okular using annotations.

Some of these bugs are rather old and I suspect the issue of highlights and
notes not being visible impacts Okular from years ago. 

If we can't fix these in the next release, I'd like to propose that the
annotation functionality be disabled.

The reason is that if a user installs Okular, then migrates away from Okular
(say they go from Ubuntu to MacOS/Windows) then they lose all their annotations
essentially.

This is a data loss issue.  

If the user can't see on the page where his annotations were, in other PDF
readers, they're essentially gone.
