We're "on the same page," or close to it. I'm creating supplementary tests from in-source-POD, and pure-POD from that same in-source-POD. The main difference between your workflow idea and my current practice is that I haven't separated the POD template out into its own file, à chacun son goût...

1. My sample code is in POD inside of Module.pm
2. POD::Tested provides a controller script pod_tested.pl that can generate both (or either of) Module.pod and Module.t as products of Module.pm's POD
3. There's no magic re-writing of the original Module.pm.

I now have some tests asserting that my examples are correct, and pure-POD files alongside the modules. There's a little more to it than that "in real life" but that's the basics.
