Huh? You can't edit content that is being included, so if I have
mypage.shtml and includes header.html, I can edit the content of
mypage but not header. Personally I think that makes perfect sense and
is highly desirable.

Apart from that SSI works very well with Contribute 3.

You make it sound like the two are mutually exclusive, which is very
misleading. There is nothing about the Dreamweaver template system
that doesn't conform with XHTML. Dreamweavers templating works through
the use of comments - nothing more.
