Comment (by georgestephanis):

 Just a bit of clarification, the reason I had included the option to fully
 duck-punch the functionality -- and pass in the $load and $require_once
 was so that it could -- for example -- clock analytics on how long each
 template include takes to run on average, and cache ones as determined by
 the back-end.

 The ability to add an absolute path and have it included is spiffy for the
 latter part, but there's no good way to clock the time it takes for the
 include to evaluate, short of faking a duck-punch with the existing filter
 and snagging the arguments passed in via a `debug_backtrace()`

 If that's something that we don't wanna support, that's fine, just wanted
 to drop in an explanation of why it had been there.
