The documentation of the org.eclipse.ui.editors.templates extension point's element "include" only talks about "templates encoded as XML" but does not specify how the elements should be encoded.

AFAICS, these templates use a format similar to the <template> element from the extension point, but not exactly the same, see implementations in ContributionTemplateStore#readContributedTemplates(..):
- included templates use attribute "context" instead of "contextTypeId"
- included templates do not support "icon"
- included templates support boolean attribute "enabled" (default: true)
- included templates support boolean attribute "deleted" (default: false)

>- included templates support boolean attribute "deleted" (default: false)
I won't document this since it's not part of the official template syntax but only used for import/export.

And there's also "autoinsert" (default: true).
