It just occurred to me to wonder... looking back at your original request for module list inclusion, you said:

Why not just put them at some URL and have L<http://somehost/whatever#xxxx> links?
Carrying this logic follow:
All the Pod/*.pod should be moved to http://cpan.perl.org and all Perl distributions
that reference them changed to L<http://whatever>
Active State should move their Docs/*.pod out of their distribution and put it on a web site
and reference them with L<http:://whatever>
When you make an assumption that leads to something absurd (contradiction) the
assumption is false. I belive the Romans called this logic form reductio adsurdum.
