Description

Describe the issue
For now inclusions are handled by an ad hoc xml element. There is need of a special treatment to use included files.

Proposed cleanup
XML Inclusions (XInclude) is a W3C specification that defines a way to include XML fragments from different sources into a single document. We could use this official mechanism instead of an ad hoc one. What do you think ?
