Note that Pod::Parser has a method (preprocess_line) which one could
utilize to do the strip without requiring an awk pre-processing step.
That being said, as the pod reformatting packages are written as
Pod::Parser subclasses, I'm not certain if it could be utilized
gracefully without limiting the potential output formats. It may be
possible to make a generic class which does the magic, and a magical
subclass of that class which inherits from both it and a particular
formatting subclass, such that preprocess_line comes from the generic
class, and everything else comes from the formatting subclass.
