This looks pretty cool, but I'm left with all sorts of questions! For example, will Perl 6 Pod be powerful enough to write a book in, without a sort of Pod Plus dialect (which O'Reilly used to use). They show examples of actually grabbing the docs using Perl - that's neat! Would this be dead simple for an IDE to also do? Would it be realistic to highlight a method name, and have the docs for that one method pop up? Another question - how does POD now relate to multiline comments? In Perl 5 there's really no such thing, but you may emulate them using POD =pod/=cut lines (although if you use a Linter, you'll get yelled at about this). I want to say Perl 6 allows something similar to be done, without complaint, but I'm not sure how that then ties into how POD is parsed for documentation.
