Cutting and pasting it somewhere works (subject to whatever licensing
it may have itself), as does having a list and a location for a copy, but
you still want it in the tree proper.

There's a reason that lawyers copy documents into other documents rather
than doing late dynamic binding - you want to be sure that what you
reference is the *exact* text that is valid for this case.

If you have a single master official copy and a link then you break all
that and you'd have to have everyones consensus and planning to change a
word of it.
