I would be curious to know how you imagine that such a tool would work in a dynamically typed language like Perl.

    I think that if this tool just documents all the "normal" subs, classes, modules and globals, it will be of great aid. I won't cry if it won't handle subroutines created on the fly, and things like this. It's enough to cover the 99% frequent usage constructs.
      It's not obvious to me how you would statically resolve method invocation to generate your list of callers.
