Ok, this could solve many problems, but what about:

<cinclude src="http://post_to_my_xml_database";>
   <content>
      <document>
         <bla/>
         ..
      </document>
   </content>
</cinclude>

(I leftout some parts, but I think it's clear what I want to say)
With the above you can send a complete XML document to somewhere
and get a response which is then included. It's not possible
to convert a complete XML document to an attribute value.
Never thought of such a use case (seems hackish to me, and a case for a SWT-like thing, but anyway).

Getting back to the schema, any extra attribute _and_ child element on the xi:include are supported, so you could have something like this IIUC:

<xi:include href="http://post-to-my-xml-thing";>
<content>
<document>
<bla/>
</document>
</content>
</xi:include>

It would of course be up to the XInclude transformer to implement the correct (and non-standard) behaviour then, but the standard syntax supports it apparently. I don't find any specification on the processing that should occur on the child-elements of xi:include, but we can ask the authors.
