Sadly that's not an option, because popup notes are not of subtype FreeText,
but subtype Text. PDF doesn't specify callout lines for the latter, does it?
Anyway, callout lines would be a nice feature for inline notes (=FreeText), it
could become a separate wish.

Yeah, ideally we'll have them both (though, no idea what would be the preferred
default in that imaginary future).

Resizing should be quite straight to implement. It's actually little change in
code, proofing it with PDF reference quotes, and some thoughts about
regressions in poppler downstream projects (e.g., how would evince be affected
when the poppler patch gets applied).

NoZoom could become a bigger adventure, afaikt there's not much prepared for it
as of now.
