The feature request for modular grammars now lives on the Wiki:

Includes would be a step forward, making the grammar file more readable and understandable. The generated source code would still be pretty unmanageable, though, in particular the Analyzer class.

A better options to includes, I think, would be to make the grammars modular. That is, each grammar defines it's own parser, tokenizer and analyzer. It should then be possible to connect the grammars to each other, similar to this:

%import myname regexp.grammar%

Token = "<<" myname.RegExp ">>" ;

The modular grammar requirement is tracked in bug #3599, although not described in much detail.

Complex grammars require a very large file to describe all parts.  Add support for breaking complex grammars into smaller, partial files which can be included into a master file.
