By "store" I mean "store in some external file". By "integrated" I mean "gathered together and combined". I never indicated that the application would parse the fragments (although in my particular application this occurs)---even if no parsing takes places and simply inclusion is to occur, the application still needs to know whether it should render characters such as '<' verbatim or whether it should encode them.
