I was puzzled by this too, but apparently its the parent where the error 
message is thrown out (rightly or falsely).

Evince does forms by now, at least to some extent, without JavaScript of course.
I've tested this:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/9.0/Samples/interactiveform_enabled.pdf
which gives me a "Unimplemented annotation: POPPLER_ANNOT_LINE, please post a 
bug report in Evince bugzilla (http://bugzilla.gnome.org) with a testcase."
So there must be some checking.

Sounds fair enough, and I'm not complaining :).

That's fine, and as long as its working I don't really care.
