Hi Okular Developers,

First, I wanted to thank you for all the great job and for the best pdf reader/editor I could find for the last 3 years on linux.

Second,
I have been searching on the net, on okular's github repository, on forums but could not find this feature in Okular so if it does exist, my excuses and would appreciate if you could enlighten me :)

The feature request is:
When you read a pdf with references (for example, latex article with bibliography and mathematical formulae), when you hover with your mouse on the reference, you directly get a preview of the destination.
Currently, you can click on the reference. This will bring you to the destination and then, you have to come back.
By having a preview, you can follow your reading without really being disturbed.

To make it more obvious, this feature has been implemented by Evince:

https://ibb.co/ZXtFT1p

This is the only feature of Evince that I'm missing in Okular :)
So, if you are also interested but did not know about this, think of it ;)

Have a great evening
