XLink isn't meant for this. Today, you would accomplish this with XML
"entities" and normal XML processing. There's a new Working Draft on a
technology called XInclude (http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude), which
accomplishes much the same thing as XML external parsed entities, only with
element syntax instead of a special entity-reference syntax.
