Subject: Ignore anything after =begin foo xxxx
The perlpod documentation does not define what should happen to any content of a =begin paragraph after the keyword. I'd like to propose that this be defined as ignored (quite possibly with a warning issued) In this manner, we can legitimately add support for things like Test::Inline 2's =begin testing foo after bar 2 At the moment, POD::Simple considers that an error. As a starting point for the additional of "extended begin" support, I'd like to see POD::Simple add support for it. I had previously convinced Sean Burke to add support for this as a precursor to having it added to the POD specification, but time defeated hm and he never had the time to add it. So I'm adding it to RT in the hope it can be done by the new maintainer.

I use the "=begin thingy blah, blah, blah" style tags in Pod::PseudoPod too, so I'm happy to move the functionality into Pod::Simple. (One less chunk of code to override in Pod::PseudoPod.) I'd go for "capture but generally ignore" everything after the block name (most likely making it available as a "title" flag on the node). This'll probably make it into the 3.05 or 3.06 release.

Great! Thanks a lot for this. My kwalitee score will jump overnight now that the Test::Inline blocks become legal :) via RT wrote: Show quoted text
