Seriously:
  + navigation of hyperlinks is badly broken (doesn't jump in the proper
    places e.g.);
  + I *hate* the left widget with silly icons that eat horizontal space
    for no good reason, and miss the previous "sliding" widget that
    implemented the very same in kpdf, and it's a big no-go for me, I've
    a small screen on my laptop ;
  + there are quite a few annoying glitches with the thumbnail
    navigation too, I don't recall which though.

  And there are quite a few quirks that are irritating beyond words,
when you work with huge PDFs files (lots of norms, POSIX documentation,
and whatnot) on a hourly basis.

  Kpdf may lack a few fancy thingies, but the UI is overall more
polished. Like we say in france, the devil is in the details. okular is
gross compared to what kpdf does for now.
