I don't really understand what you're looking for, but the comments lead me to think of one thing that might be a little relevant, if not directly useful for you.

In mediawiki it's called transclusion. There is a markdown extension with similar functionality called multimarkdown. I looked into it briefly for a project once, but ended up going with basic markdown instead to keep maintenance and content writing as simple as possible.

Thanks; transclusion is a good descriptive word for it although hard to grok until you read the explanation!

Multimarkdown sounds rather like pandoc which I use in other contexts.
