I couldn't find any "official" documentation for perllocal and I doubt there is any standard, since naming it so closely to perllocale would be more than unfortunate.

If it's a pseudo-standard by some installers/builders, than the next question is, if such a limited static list in POD is a better choice over searching @INC dynamically.

Hence what's the use-case?

I have some ideas about that, but most of them would be better covered by cpan and cpanm creating something like YAML or JSON.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
