Indeed, the FAQ entry you mentioned is still valid:
http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/faq.php?branch=faq.itext&node=password
and it will remain that way.

> 1. Stay with 2.0.2 for ever

I wouldn't do that.

> 2. Patch itext 2.0.3+

That's not an option.

> 3. Modify our code???

Maybe: provide the password.

I would go for option 4:
create a version of the form that is not password protected.
If you really need to encrypt it, do so after the form was filled.
That's my 5 star answer ;-)

Can you imagine iText to disappear because nobody pays for it?
