Maybe I'm over-engineering here, but I'd just write a script or whatever 
to inject xinclude markup in the top-level XML doc while reading the dir 
structure. Would probably take just a few minutes. This approach would 
also work for injecting entities, I just don't like them as much.

Using something like wildcards at any level may present problems if 
order matters.
