If I'm reading this correctly, it looks like there's no short-term change to qpdf required. Is that correct? I'm thinking doing this type of flatting in qpdf is probably out of scope, but in any case, I wouldn't have time to work on it any time soon. I haven't studied interactive forms enough to know exactly what would be involved.

There are certainly limitations of just directly printing PDF, and it's unlikely that qpdf or a filter that only does structural transformation will ever be able to handle all these kinds of issues.

If I've misread this and there is something expected to be done with qpdf in the short term, please clarify so I don't inadvertently decide not to do something that needs to be done. Thanks.
