The knowledge of where to find include files is usually specified in  
the file that is including the files.

Using Apache as an example:

Include /etc/apache/vhosts/*.conf

/\ or similar is common, although not necessarily in RH ... But it's  
been a while since I've seen RHs Apache setup. :-)

It would be naive to specify the Includes in the lens IMHO as each  
distro/setup would have their own set of Includes.
