The bug shouldn't be in NEEDSINFO. Description + screenshots made it clear
enough, we can decide if the request is valid now.

Sebastian wants to annotate a very particular text location with a popup note.
But the note icon is too big to fit inside white space between glyphs or lines
and therefore the icon hides some text. Sebastian suggests to have smaller
notes.

I see two possible solutions.

1. Make the icon resizable, just like other annotation types. I've already done
a poppler patch to enable this, but after some discussion it got stale. I don't
know why. Any interest to pick it up again? See
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/issues/379.

2. Implement "NoZoom" behavior for the icons (see PDF reference, "Annotations
flags"), as Adobe Reader does. Then the icon is always the same size regardless
of zoom level. If you zoom in enough the icon gets small enough relative to
document text to fit inside gaps.

As a workaround one could use another annotation tool, like highlighter.
Anyway, IMO the request is valid.
