I think you're extrapolating PBP beyond its original intentions here.
Damian was discussing where pod should go *in the file*, and
preferring all pod to go after __END__. AIUI, Gabor's idea was that it
doesn't matter where it goes in the file: even if all the pod is at
the end, Padre will find it for you anyway.

That way, if you want to edit all the docs at once, you can go to the
end of the file and get only docs. If you want to edit one function
and its associated pod entry, you can use Gabor's proposed feature.
And if you just want to tweak code without updating pod at all
(because you're not changing observable behaviour or you're fixing
bugs), you can just edit the code.
