>> Complete page freeze and lock down - no scrolling whatsoever

Not possible.

>> Intelligent buttons that can "float" over any page

Maybe in Acrobat, not in Reader.

>> Intelligent buttons that can quickly search a covert internal database

Maybe with javascript.

>> A "One file" solution that can be encrypted - no external database

Yes, if you can solve the other problems.

>> The ability to compress the file for easy transport

I don't know if the problem is the technology or the requirements. If you
