It's more than calculations and such; I've encountered a document that has a "helpscreen" overlay that you are supposed to click on to make the box go away when you're done reading it. But since it is apparently using javascript to do it, you cannot get rid of the box, which covers a majority of the page, and tehrefore cannot fill out the fields. So no, not an enhancement, definitely a bug, since the document is completely unusable without the JS support.

Functionality which is broken - it does not calculate total on rightmost column while any Adobe Acrobat Reader does it. To reproduce it, you don't have to understand Finnish language -- merely fill money values like yyyy,xx into right column (decimal separator is "comma" in Finland!) and move focus of input out from the right column. It should make total in field (under right column in table) marked with text "Matkakustannukset yhteensä euroa" (travel expenses total in Euro) - it does not in evince.
