I am not sure what "this thread" refers to: If you mean the "getDocInfo" stuff,
then I would just add that it seems to be part of the internal Poppler API
which has no stability guarantees at all. Hence you could remove the old call
and if someone used it, that is his own fault. (At least this is how I
understood the mailing list discussions concerning such topics.)

If you refer to the whole threading work, as maintainer of qpdfview and hence
Poppler user, I am very much interested in seeing this resolved. I was just
testing your patch again yesterday and the perceived difference is rather
noticeable. Especially when searching the document as the rendering does not
stall the search any more. (Btw., I always have to apply with
"--ignore-space-changes".)

Your work on this is very much appreciated. Thanks!
