The annotation support it's partly done.

It has been delayed because real life (job, university, home change,
etc..). One of the main problems is my job. It's very time and effort
consuming.

I could get some more time in the next months to finish the rewrite I
have around. I know that we will have a lot of work at job, so I can't
ensure a roadmap.

The code isn't in the evince code yet, so you can't enable it. The code
I did the last summer, with the old design it's around so, you can try
to apply the patches to get it working.

I don't know how they work, but you can offer a bounty for this feature.
It would help to get the work done.
