I'm reminded of
Re: RFC: Wider scope for HTML::TokeParser::Simple.
Whatever you decide to do, I want my old scripts to work as-is,
without any deprecation warnings.
If this does not happen,
I will not be using/reccomending HTML::TokeParser::Simple anymore
(my promise to you :D).
As for the constructor, forget that new_from stuff.
If there are more than 1 arguments ( filename => $foo, scalar => $foo, filehandle => $foo, uri => $foo ), you can intuit the new interface is wanted and freely enable the deprecation warnings.
