+=head1 BUGS
+
+The C<modified_dates> behavior is buggy - pages should have proper dependency resolution
+so that pages which call other functions are still updated if the pages they require
+are modified but the page itself isn't. For instance, if one page has a list of books
+that is automatically generated, it won't be updated if the books change because the
+generator doesn't know that this page actually depends on all other pages. As a small
+workaround, there is now the C<always_update> metadata, so if C<always_update:true> is
+specified in the metadata, that page will always be updated.
