in reply to Filter::Simple and __DATA__

After the filter runs (which I WANT to modify DATA area), I need to still be able to read data. This is for an application in Inline::C, by the way.

Modifying the __DATA__ section is not a typical job for a source filter. There are usually more direct ways to process __DATA__. With Inline::C, the FILTERS option can be used to pre-process the C code without employing a full source filter.
