I think that it is a good idea. In addition to extracting Pod, it could be used to build on give back a pod from a input that have the same 'internal representation' as Pod::Simple. For example, one could imagine an XML parser that starts from the XML produced by Pod::Simple::DumpAsXML and emits the same function calls as Pod::Simple such that using your modules turns it back to Pod easily. -- Pat
