> The way in which PDFBox handles the Page tree needs to be rewritten,
> preferably from scratch. Currently the document catalog returns the raw
> objects from the page tree, wrapped in either a PDPage or PDPageNode.
> We need to abstract over the page tree and get rid of PDPageNode, we should
> provide methods which can add/remove PDPage objects *only*. The existing
> low-level access to the page tree is not needed at the PD-level.
> Inheritance of page properties such as crop box, resources, and rotation
> should be reimplemented to use whatever new page tree abstraction we invent.
> We can finally remove the old broken methods which didn't look up the
> inheritance tree when retrieving these values.
