What do you mean by "inlined"? During an export such a link
[[[dir/file]]] should be replaced with the content of the "file", and
the link itself disappear. But in the source .org file it is just
shorter/cleaner way to write
#+INCLUDE: "dir/file"
and be able to click the link to open the file in a separate buffer.

Why shouldn't it be possible to achieve just the same by ALSO clicking
on the URI? If you use .org files as a wiki - this feature is quite
useful.
Thank you!
