The only reason that Pod directives have to be at the beginning of the
line is so that Pod parsers don't need to know Perl (or any other
language) in order to extract Pod from files, right? Allowing them to
be indented like I suggested would break that, but the tool would need
to parse Perl in order to find the #={ } comments anyway, and to tie
them to surrounding Perl structures.
