Monstrous meaning "large and unwieldy". Yes, Mojo::DOM is well documented and no doubt a high-quality module, but there are so many method calls, it's difficult to sort through them. This slows you down.
I don't know if I said this was "something simple" but it is a problem that seems to common enough to have been solved my another module, especially in Perl that grew its legs during the dawn of the www. Pulling up a web page in a browser is an extraordinarily difficult task when you look under the hood but it should be simple to perform. I would have expected a basic task like this to be readily available in an off-the-shelf module. Indeed, there are existing modules but they were either a) buggy or b) didn't meet my specific needs.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
