I had access to a full version of Acrobat a few years back and tried 
this with the Jovian Chronicles character sheet (it's a simple, very 
clean sheet to 'mark' with text fields.

As you mention, the big problem is lack of easy save/restore 
functionality. I think the form features were meant to be used as a web 
forms replacement, so the only way to do things is to submit to a web 
site, which wasn't really practical.
