Version 2.5.0
The document created by this code appears and behaves correctly in Chrome's built-in pdf viewer. Two text fields both containing the value 'bar' should be displayed, and updating the value in one should change the value displayed in the other. A use case for this feature is multi-page documents with fields that are duplicated on each page (e.g. name and date on medical forms).
However, Adobe Acrobat does not display textField2. The PDF should contain one field element named 'foo' with two Kids. Instead it contains two field elements both named 'foo', one with the value 'bar' and the other with no value (my understanding is that violates ISO-32000-1 section 12.7.3.2 "Field names" creating an invalid PDF):
It is possible for different field dictionaries to have the same fully qualified field name if they are descendants of a common ancestor with that name and have no partial field names (T entries) of their own. Such field dictionaries are different representations of the same underlying field; they should differ only in properties that specify their visual appearance. In particular, field dictionaries with the same fully qualified field name shall have the same field type (FT), value (V), and default value (DV).
