Hello,

Not sure if this question is intended for everybody on the list or
only the developers, but I'll just assume it's for everyone:

Looking at the feature list and reading the bug tracker, I'd say that
thread-safety needs to be rethought. Maybe one could make this a
priority for the next release cycle, trying to implement the long-term
solution of removing PDFDoc::getXRef and better distributing the
workload, maybe under Thomas' and/or Albert's supervision. (I would be
happy to help as much as I can, but I am not very knowledgeable about
Poppler's internals yet.)

Still, I would argue for a third beta since the RTL stuff seems almost
like a bug and less like a missing feature and probably affects a lot
of people. (I would also include #2981 here, which depends on #55977.)

Best regards, Adam.
