Candidate code for adding to the shared code repository. Code may be classes, functions, or code fragments, but in general will need to be packaged in a Perl package for the repository. If you propose a shared code block, you are implicitly offering to do the work. Proposals have to be seconded by (1) a
CoreTeam member or (2)

I'm not sure I'm qualified for seconding shared-code candidates. I can't evaluate the quality of code or the validity of certain design approaches. I'm certainly willing help push ideas forward though.
Isn't the 'regex handling' a subset of the compatibility module? (I'm just wondering why it is a seperate entry).
BTW, absense of a seconder does not mean absense of support. In my case it might mean I don't have enough understanding to say "yah, that's a great idea. We need to do it" with any weight. For example the TAG parser module sounds like a great idea to me, but I don't
know that it actually is.

I took your name off the list of seconders; but I think we need more seconders from among plugins authors to make this work. Anyone willing to join the fray, please comment here!

CPAN:HTML::SimpleParse
%hash = $p->parse_args( $arg_string );
This routine is handy for parsing the contents of an HTML tag into key=value pairs. For instance:
$text = 'type=checkbox checked name=flavor value="chocolate or strawberry"';
%hash = $p->parse_args( $text );
# %hash is ( TYPE=>'checkbox', CHECKED=>undef, NAME=>'flavor',
# VALUE=>'chocolate or strawberry' )
