Is this on Apache?  <warning: untested idea> I'm wondering if you couldn't 
use an Apache <FILES> directive to turn on PHP's auto-append feature for 
that one page.  Then the people who need to tinker with the HTML could do 
so freely without the possiblity of messing with the include; in fact, 
they'd never have to know about the include file's existance, it'd just 
happened "automagically" as far as they (and the boss) are concerned.
