How would you label a helper/devel class? Here's one technique I've seen:

=head1 SYNOPSIS No public interface

However, it would be nice to put something in the SYNOPSIS section, even for a devel class. PRIVATE SYNOPSIS / PUBLIC SYNOPSIS ?

    In the synopsis, I would probably be just about as terse as your example; but perhaps a small example would help. I would at least explain the class's purpose in its description, though.
