This is something I use when dealing with a book or report with 
basically one big file per chapter. Here the problem is slightly 
different : I have 4 org/Beamer presentations that almost 80% of them 
are the same. So instead of maintening this 80% in 4 different places, 
I'd like to write them and change them in one place and then include the 
needed headlines at the right place in each of the 4 presentations.

I know this can't be done with #+INCLUDE maybe with a nice babel 
function or a bit of elisp. So maybe someone already did that. Otherwise 
this may be a nice addition for further release of org ;)

Cheers,
Xavier
