Subject: L<text|scheme...> is invalid (usually)
I've been using L<text|scheme:...> for a while, because Pod::Simple supports it (and therefore Pod::Simple::HTML), but it's technically invalid according to perlpod. search.cpan.org doesn't process them as intended and instead links to a perldoc?http://whatever. Test::Pod should probably detect and warn (if not test-fail) on these link structures or otherwise have an option to be strict about them. -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 109 jumps, 44.4 minutes of freefall, 85.0 freefall miles.

My ideas for a fix and my test that proves it works is in my fork: http://github.com/jettero/test-pod/ -- If riding in an airplane is flying, then riding in a boat is swimming. 110 jumps, 45.0 minutes of freefall, 86.2 freefall miles.
