Jason Crain, thank you for your response.

I appreciate keeping a lean code base to ease maintenance. However, I'm
a strong proponent of functionality compatibility expectations, to ease
the transition for folks from an alternative operating system, and/or
PDF viewer.

Hence, in this select case, allowing for feature compatibility
expectations with Reader/Chrome makes sense here.
