Andreas,
thanks for clarifying this. It makes perfectly sense (shame on me for
not understanding it in the first place!).
As far as the feature request for poppler-glib is concerned, it seems
to me that the implementation is already on the to do list of poppler
library developers [1]:
[...]
| * glib frontend:
| - Sound/Movie actions support
[...]
[1] https://cgit.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/tree/TODO
Or am I misinterpreting this to do list entry?
Maybe they just need some more motivation to implement it sooner, rather
than later: I would strongly encourage you to file the feature request!
Perhaps you will even manage to help them in getting this feature
implemented...
