It should be possible to do an include prior to compilation of the template, so things like global variables or other bits of included code can be referenced.

I want to place a directive such as the following in any template (regardless of format):

@@include("/path/to/file")

The primary difference in functionality from the existing include/render methods is that it should be possible to do something like this:

globals.scaml:

- lazy val name = "Robbie"
- lazy val address = "123 Main St."

template.scaml:

@@include("globals.scaml")
The address for #{name} is #{address}

The current mechanism using ScalatePackage requires a recompile of the application, whereas this method only requires recompiling the templates. The latter is much preferable for our use case, and I suspect others may also benefit.
