If we do so but avoid redundant text parts, we can use the entity
mechanism or the more modern XInclude mechanism. The attached patch uses
both techniques in an example file: brin.sgml includes lorem.sgml two times.

(In both cases we should avoid files with multiple root elements, eg.
multiple <para> or <sect1> without a parent element, because this would
violate the well-formed-ness of the included XML document.)
