OK, this is better than repeating the same code in multiple pages, but
I'm not sure that it is quite equivalent to what we have now.  Is
there a way to make the link to the current page inactive?  Even if
there is not, the include feature might be better than repeating the
same code verbatim in the source for multiple pages.
