> On TIKA-2442, [~ccreutzig] submitted a PDF file that shows that a PDTextField can have Kids.  According to the PDF spec version 1.7, table 8.69, page 675, "Kids" is (apparently) available for all fields.  In the description of a Text field, the spec says
> bq. Besides the usual entries common to all fields (see Table 8.69 on page 675) and to fields containing variable text (see Table 8.71)
> Acrobat is able to handle the triggering file, and when modified and saved, Acrobat maintains the parent field as a PDTextField.
