Hi Hans,

First and foremost: Thank you for uploading the Beta! This solves the
problem I have reported with \reference and focus=standard:

I agree with you and Pablo: the ISO standard is what counts. And I believe
that named destinations, their use, and viewer behavior is described there
clearly.

I will try to provide minimal examples that I believe are so common that
the viewer behavior should be clear.

I believe that many people have to make compromises, e.g., cannot afford
the time or money to produce both a screen version and a print version of a
document. I believe that the fit-width mode is a good compromise - as long
as it is viewed in "continuous" viewing mode.

I agree with you about footnotes. And, as mentioned above, I will try to
come up with decent example documents. There are still cases in my
documents that don't work and i will try to minimize these.

Thanks again for your effort!
Christoph
