Abstract as file

[lcnbr]

It would be great to be able to give a qmd file as an abstract instead of having to write everything in the frontmatter!

There is a nice extension that allows you to write the abstract as a section (not a separate file)- perhaps it could be helpful:

In addition to @dragonstyle answer, one could use this extension and the include shortcode (https://quarto.org/docs/authoring/includes.html) to get the expected results.
