But seriously, I really don't think that my last patch has any
significant impact on anyone who wants uppercase NAME and AUTHOR,

enables this small functionality for the rest of us.
FWIW, I think that David has made some very good points for M::B not
dictating the format of NAME and AUTHOR headers.
Yeah, I agree, I don't want M::B to dictate any POD formats. But I do
think it should be compliant with the tools/specs that *do* dictate
those formats. So I don't want to strike out on my own and start
loosening specs that I don't own.
There's a podchecker tool to check for errors in pods. Hooks that
use that would be cool, like a Build podcheck target.
Yup, there's a 'testpod' action in the latest code:
---------------------------------
% Build help testpod
=item testpod
This checks all the files described in the C<docs> action and
produces C<Test::Harness>-style output. If you are a module author,
this is useful to run before creating a new release.
