=head1 DESCRIPTION

C<PPI::Statement::Data> is a utility class designed to hold content in
the __DATA__ section of a file. It provides a single statement to hold
B<all> of the data.

=head1 METHODS

C<PPI::Statement::Data> has no additional methods beyond the default ones
provided by L<PPI::Statement>, L<PPI::Node> and L<PPI::Element>.

However, it is expected to gain methods for accessing the data directly,
(as a filehandle for example) just as you would access the data in the
Perl code itself.
