Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-2755:
----------------------------------------
As a side note PDF 2.0 (in the current draft) deprecates XFA and also
NeedAppearances has changed in that is demands that a form filling application
shall update the fields appearance and not depend on the (Adobe) reader to
construct that by setting the flag. The same applies to annotations.
