> We have a {{PDAppearanceContentStream}} for appearances but nothing for XObject forms and tiling patterns.
> What we need should extend {{PDAbstractContentStream}} and should have a constructor like
> {code:java}
> public PDFormContentStream(PDFormXObject form) throws IOException
> {code}
> Alternatively, why not replace {{PDAppearanceContentStream}} ? Its parameter {{PDAppearanceStream}} is extended from {{PDFormXObject}} so we could just use the base class.
> We need this both for 2.0 and 3.* - we have users who have a really hard time fiddling with low level operators instead of using the methods.
> In 2.0 we could replace the parameter of {{PDPageContentStream}} that is currently {{PDAppearanceStream}}. This would be a non breaking change.
