[1] Not clear how important this is... we need this mostly to avoid OOM for arbitrary zoom levels, but how important is this?
- CarlosGarciaCampos: It's very important for OLPC (See http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evince-list/2008-January/msg00005.html)
[2] This should pobably be implmented in gtk+
[3] OO.o writer, Acroread, Word has this, it's pretty convenient when scrolling to a specific page.
[4] like Colin Walters imsep idea, run the rendering backend in an SELinux jail over DBus... call it D-Evince.
