Recursive PCBs could work the same way as the footprint re-use: a node could contain a reference to a parent node; the parent node could be a single element or itself a reference to a collection of elements.+1 I can think of a "group" of {traces, vias, elements, silk text or lines} to be linked in from an external file or to be embedded. The analogy of embedded/unembedded symbols in gschem comes to mind.
Me too. And what if the gschem, pcb file formats were somehow unified. Might allow easier searching through project data. Might enable cell-based design like larger circuits, (chips), are done...
