Actually there is ONE major problem which I can find with Xincludes...

  http://www.w3.org/TR/xinclude/#loops
  
  "When recursively processing an xi:include element, it is a fatal error
  to process another xi:include element with an include location  that has
  already been processed in the inclusion chain."

Problem is that Petal is absolutely fine with recursive includes. So
maybe if we were to implement XIncludes we should ignore that bit of the
specification.

Cheers,
