I have no doubt.  There's lots of features we use all the time which this
example does not and should not mention.

This is supposed to be a concise teaching example of My First Module and only
needs what is necessary to get a module working.  It's still too long.
There's plenty of confusion available for the first time module author without
bringing %EXPORT_TAGS into it.

That said, I'm sure the %EXPORT_TAGS docs in Exporter could use work.  To go
further, chopping out the tutorial from Exporter into Exporter::Tutorial and
leaving Exporter as API docs would make Exporter far easier to understand.
