dear perl experts: I know I am asking too many questions. I promise
to slow down.

I am thinking about *very mildly* extending pod, but with perl6 around
the corner, it would make sense to see what is planned first. I could
not find anything on the web.

Basically, I would want to write a trivial preprocessor that

eliminates the need for '=pod' if there is a '=head*',
eliminates the the need for blank lines,
and that allows mild lookahead. (I like to write and keep my sub
docs together with the subs themselves, but would like to be able to
get them into the main pod documentation as a "SUBROUTINES" section.)

These are changes that would not complicate pod very much, but which I
would find quite useful. YMMV.

(One big problem for me is that emacs formatting may screw up without
these hints. It would be much nicer if some of these made it into pod6
standard, so that they percolate into the emacs formatting
intelligence.)

regards,

/iaw

No problem thus far, that I can see...
