That is not a job for Pod::Find. At most, Pod::Find should
provide a callback mechanism; the bookkeeping mechanism is the
responsibility of the program using Pod::Find.

There is one on CPAN in the scripts section but that has numerous
shortcomings (IMHO). I have my own script to do this (with
various neat features), but am currently changing it away from
relying on Pod::Tree::HTML (which uses HTML::Stream (I think it
was called)) which I didn't like at all to a Pod::Simple based
HTML converter.

There's oodles of crannies it already has and more I want to add.
I don't know when I'll release it, yet - depends on how much time
I can spare for it. I'd like this finished sooner than later,
myself, since, as you said, creating fully interlinked HTML of
the POD from all installed modules is such a hideous task.
