I have something that does that for the perlfaq (I think the details of
the source repo are in perlfaq.pod), but it's very low tech. It's not
a module, either. It's just a script.
I'd like to see a base module for this task, maybe Pod::Extract::URI.
Test::Pod::URI could then use that.
It would also be nice to have something to parse URI in the prose as
well as the code, even if it's not tagged as a URI. Maybe there isn't a
perfect solution to that, but even a 90% one would be nice. :)
I'm looking forward to whatever you come up with :)
