I'm sceptical about the effictiveness of the SEE ALSO section: i) it has to be hand-maintained, so probably lagging behind development ii) it's usually at the bottom of the POD - many readers will tune out before that.

I think my question is more general: can a module manipulate its POD, i.e.:

=item TITLE

ref $self - frobnication library version $VERSION

=cut
[download]

I'm interested in the (hypothetical) ability of interpolating variables (for example from @ISA), so that the documentation doesn't go stale.
