[Bioperl-l] new/unannounced methods

[Nathan Haigh]

I've come across a couple of methods that are commented as being
new/unannounced e.g.:
Bio::Location::Atomic::trunc

As it's not been documented with POD it reduces the POD coverage metric.
I wondered if it makes sense to have these types of methods initially
made private with the use of a leading underscore until it's unveiling?
This way, programmers know not to touch the method from outside the
module and the POD coverage doesn't see it as being missed.

Any thoughts?
