I have an idea that might help to create a workaround. Define a derived
backend that exports headings with some tag, e.g. :fence:, as empty
string (instead of dropping it early from AST) and add this kind of
heading between "#+include:" lines:
#+include: with-comment.org
* ---Fence--- :fence:
#+include: more.org :minlevel 1

This is a bug.
Definitely, it is a pitfall. Whether it is a bug, from my point of view,
it is a more subtle question. Limiting scope of "#+include:" may lead to
complications. Consider some text between include lines
#+include: with-comment-heading.org
A paragraph.
#+include: another-file.org
If second include is not a part of last heading from first file then
what you are going to do with intermediate text? If it belongs to the
included heading then it is confusing to the similar degree as the
reported case with following include. Otherwise it is top level text and
"#+include:" becomes a way to achieve a frequently requested feature -
terminating heading without starting new one. Most export backends have
no way to express that some section is ended and following text should
belong to higher level section. (I am leaving aside various insets.) I
am in doubts if something like inline tasks should be allowed for all
headings, despite it may be really convenient for notes.
