 If C<$enable> is false (the default), then C<decode> will throw an error
 when it encounters a self-referential/cyclic data structure.
+FUTURE DIRECTION: the motivation behind this option is to avoid I<real>
+cycles - future versions of this module might chose to decode cyclic data
+structures using weak references when this option is off, instead of
+throwing an error.
 This option does not affect C<encode> in any way - shared values and

+=item $cbor = $cbor->validate_utf8 ([$enable])
+=item $enabled = $cbor->get_validate_utf8
+If C<$enable> is true (or missing), then C<decode> will validate that
+elements (text strings) containing UTF-8 data in fact contain valid UTF-8
+data (instead of blindly accepting it). This validation obviously takes
+extra time during decoding.
+The concept of "valid UTF-8" used is perl's concept, which is a superset
+of the official UTF-8.
+If C<$enable> is false (the default), then C<decode> will blindly accept
+UTF-8 data, marking them as valid UTF-8 in the resulting data structure
+regardless of whether thats true or not.
+Perl isn't too happy about corrupted UTF-8 in strings, but should
+generally not crash or do similarly evil things. Extensions might be not
+so forgiving, so it's recommended to turn on this setting if you receive
+untrusted CBOR.
+This option does not affect C<encode> in any way - strings that are
+supposedly valid UTF-8 will simply be dumped into the resulting CBOR
+string without checking whether that is, in fact, true or not.

+=head2 INCREMENTAL PARSING
+In some cases, there is the need for incremental parsing of JSON
+texts. While this module always has to keep both CBOR text and resulting
+Perl data structure in memory at one time, it does allow you to parse a
+CBOR stream incrementally, using a similar to using "decode_prefix" to see
+if a full CBOR object is available, but is much more efficient.
+It basically works by parsing as much of a CBOR string as possible - if
+the CBOR data is not complete yet, the pasrer will remember where it was,
+to be able to restart when more data has been accumulated. Once enough
+data is available to either decode a complete CBOR value or raise an
+error, a real decode will be attempted.
+A typical use case would be a network protocol that consists of sending
+and receiving CBOR-encoded messages. The solution that works with CBOR and
+about anything else is by prepending a length to every CBOR value, so the
+receiver knows how many octets to read. More compact (and slightly slower)
+would be to just send CBOR values back-to-back, as C<CBOR::XS> knows where
+a CBOR value ends, and doesn't need an explicit length.
+The following methods help with this:
+=over 4
+=item @decoded = $cbor->incr_parse ($buffer)
+This method attempts to decode exactly one CBOR value from the beginning
+of the given C<$buffer>. The value is removed from the C<$buffer> on
+success. When C<$buffer> doesn't contain a complete value yet, it returns
+nothing. Finally, when the C<$buffer> doesn't start with something
+that could ever be a valid CBOR value, it raises an exception, just as
+C<decode> would. In the latter case the decoder state is undefined and
+must be reset before being able to parse further.
+This method modifies the C<$buffer> in place. When no CBOR value can be
+decoded, the decoder stores the current string offset. On the next call,
+continues decoding at the place where it stopped before. For this to make
+sense, the C<$buffer> must begin with the same octets as on previous
+unsuccessful calls.
+You can call this method in scalar context, in which case it either
+returns a decoded value or C<undef>. This makes it impossible to
+distinguish between CBOR null values (which decode to C<undef>) and an
+unsuccessful decode, which is often acceptable.
+=item @decoded = $cbor->incr_parse_multiple ($buffer)
+Same as C<incr_parse>, but attempts to decode as many CBOR values as
+possible in one go, instead of at most one. Calls to C<incr_parse> and
+C<incr_parse_multiple> can be interleaved.
+=item $cbor->incr_reset
+Resets the incremental decoder. This throws away any saved state, so that
+subsequent calls to C<incr_parse> or C<incr_parse_multiple> start to parse
+a new CBOR value from the beginning of the C<$buffer> again.
+This method can be caled at any time, but it I<must> be called if you want
+to change your C<$buffer> or there was a decoding error and you want to
+reuse the C<$cbor> object for future incremental parsings.

 =head1 MAPPING
 This section describes how CBOR::XS maps Perl values to CBOR values and
 vice versa. These mappings are designed to "do the right thing" in most
 =item hash references
 Perl hash references become CBOR maps. As there is no inherent ordering in
 hash keys (or CBOR maps), they will usually be encoded in a pseudo-random
-order. This order can be different each time a hahs is encoded.
+order. This order can be different each time a hash is encoded.
 Currently, tied hashes will use the indefinite-length format, while normal
 hashes will use the fixed-length format.
 =item array references
 These tags are automatically created (and decoded) for serialisable
 objects using the C<FREEZE/THAW> methods (the L<Types::Serialier> object
 serialisation protocol). See L<OBJECT SERIALISATION> for details.

+=item 28, 29 (shareable, sharedref, L<http://cbor.schmorp.de/value-sharing>)
 These tags are automatically decoded when encountered (and they do not
 result in a cyclic data structure, see C<allow_cycles>), resulting in
 shared values in the decoded object. They are only encoded, however, when
 C<allow_sharing> is enabled.
 will be shared, others will not. While non-reference shared values can be
 generated in Perl with some effort, they were considered too unimportant
 to be supported in the encoder. The decoder, however, will decode these
 values as shared values.

 provide these modules. The decoding usually fails with an exception if the
 required module cannot be loaded.

+=item 0, 1 (date/time string, seconds since the epoch)
+These tags are decoded into L<Time::Piece> objects. The corresponding
+C<Time::Piece::TO_CBOR> method always encodes into tag 1 values currently.
+The L<Time::Piece> API is generally surprisingly bad, and fractional
+seconds are only accidentally kept intact, so watch out. On the plus side,
+the module comes with perl since 5.10, which has to count for something.
 =item 2, 3 (positive/negative bignum)
 These tags are decoded into L<Math::BigInt> objects. The corresponding
 C<Math::BigInt::TO_CBOR> method encodes "small" bigints into normal CBOR
