Grmbl... I had one of my scripts break because of this; I did:

local $SIG{__DIE__} = sub { ... }

and the die got triggered by the eval { ... die $FINISHED } in the
HeadParser. Can this be written without eval/die? Either way I'd
like an option to turn this html-parsing behaviour off when doing a
content().

What do you think?
