Is that so?
I can’t parse that sentence, but if you’re asking if this bit should be removed:
"Authors wanting to link to a particular (absolute) URL, must do so
only with "LE<lt>scheme:...>" codes (like
LE<lt>http://www.perl.org>), and must not attempt "LE<lt>Some Site
Name|scheme:...>" codes. This restriction avoids many problems
in parsing and rendering LE<lt>...> codes."
Then the answer is “yes.” And Pod::Parser should be modified to allow or support
L<text|scheme:>.
Best,

Sorry for the confusing text. You did parse it correctly, and blead now
has the text from perlpodspec removed.
