i'll patch lpdf-wid but somehow I get the impression that it's more a
viewer issue (the list shown seems to be a merge of filename as well as
symbolic names while a clever list builder should look at the referred
objects) ... but maybe no one else usesvdifferent symbolic names (we had
similar issues with fields in the past and even now advanced field
support is somewhat bugged one or the other way, depending on the viewer
version, esp chained ones)
