You seem to be thinking about something like the import mechanism in
Java, aren't you?
While this is a nice feature for a compiling language it does not make
to much sense for a scripting environment where every included file
will hurt runtinme performance and where this 'feature' could be used
for attacks by putting additional files in import-directories.
If you really still want this feature you can always use readdir()
and friends to implement the requested behavior in userland
