This is something that would probably not be represented with a new  
element, because elements are  preserved in the DOM tree so they can be  
accessed and queried.
So then you'd have a question: keep <include>in the dom and allow access  
to children like an iframe, or replace <include> entirely ?
The answer could be intuitive, but that can open a can of worms. Then you  
can do all sorts of dynamic manipulation, which would have to be very well  
specified.
I think the way to go would be a processing instruction.

The idea is good though ! But I think could be better implemented with a  
css template like feature. I don't like the idea of a new element.

Bye.
