Yes, it is better!
Writing in the physical frame of the form is more intuitive.
Something weird: when filling a form or an annotation, I expect the
right and left key to go to the next or last char, not to go one page
forward or backward. This didn't happen with qpdfview 0.4.6.99~1361.

I am in favor of merging asap.
