Hi,

This sounds very reasonable. Evince does currently not have a real
browser plugin (but it can be used as such with mozplugger I think) but
you can still request this as a future feature.

See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=168933 for a bug tracking
the development of a browser plugin. You can add a comment there or file
it as a separate request.
