Subject: auto-generate links to classes and roles
This is a bit outside Pod::Weaver's core competency, but it would be nice if it, like javadoc, could automatically generate sections providing links to superclasses and roles. Still better would be links to subclasses or, for roles, classes using these roles. This would make it a lot easier to get a handle on an API and to ensure that the documentation and the code remained in sync.
Although I know many people would like a tool that could do this, it is not going to be Pod::Weaver per se. There have been one or two tools that use Pod::Weaver to build it, though. There is https://metacpan.org/module/Pod::Weaver::Section::ClassMopper for one. I also think that Pod::Plexus (not on CPAN) is meant to do some of this. -- rjbs
