Where? And I'm not asking that to be a PITA, because I don't see
it. But then I'm just looking at the HTML generated from CPAN,
presumably the output of pod2html. Should I take a closer look at
the Element.pm file (I guess I will, since it contains the working
examples I so dearly want)? Or is there more documentation I
should be studying?

Mmm, I have more reading and coding to do.
