The rationale is that 90% of the time, you want, say, HTML, and you 
want to accept anything. So you can look in the Formatter::HTML::* 
modules using Module::Pluggable or something.

Anyway, ideally, you'd use some meta-api like 
Formatter->from("POD")->to("HTML")->format($pod) and not need to worry 
about sub-modules...
