will construct a "binary" stream, but then enable UTF-8 translation.
+=item pop
+
+A pseudo layer that removes the top-most layer. Gives perl code
+a way to manipulate the layer stack. Should be considered
+as experimental. Note that C<:pop> only works on real layers
+and will not undo the effects of pseudo layers like C<:utf8>.
+An example of a possible use might be:
+
+ open($fh,...)
+ ...
+ binmode($fh,":encoding(...)"); # next chunk is encoded
+ ...
+ binmode($fh,":pop"); # back to un-encocded
+
+A more elegant (and safer) interface is needed.
