Hmm, I'm wondering if I fully understand the question that was
asked. :-/ Are there insert menu items or #include files that do *not* also
include any additional needed #include files for the initial #include file to
work? (Sorry, that sounds kind of convoluted and funny!) I don't recall any
problems like that... or maybe so, when I first started using POV-Ray, but I
just worked around them...

As I understood the OP, the point is that when you add something from
the "Insert" menu, the text block that is inserted should tell you if
you need to also add any #include into your scene file to make that
block of code work.
Indeed some of the items in that menu start with something like:
//needs: #include "shapes.inc"
But the HF_Cylinder one, for example, gives no clues as to what file (if
any) you should #include to get it to work.

Congratulations, Folks -- you have just identified a problem that you
have the power to solve virtually by yourselves ;)
(1) Go to GitHub (https://github.com) and create an account there.
(2) Fork the POV-Ray repository (https://github.com/POV-Ray/povray.git).
(3*) Install the "GitHub Desktop" (https://desktop.github.com/) or any
other Git client of your choice.
(4*) Create a local copy of your POV-Ray repository fork.
(5) Edit the include menu snippets as you deem necessary (they reside at
"distribution/platform-specific/windows/Insert Menu").
(6*) Commit your changes to your local copy of the repository.
(7*) "Push" your changes to your POV-Ray repository fork at GitHub.
(8) Create a so-called "pull request".
This will automatically let us know that you have changed something,
review the changes you have made, and accept your changes into the
official POV-Ray respository by a simple click of a button.
(*If you're changing only a single file, you can skip the steps marked
with an asterisk.)
We need more names to add to the "with contributions from" section ;)

Okay, begin with adding my name to the "with contributions from" section
as I was the one who successfully identified these problems. ;-)
A decade-long dream comes true!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think merely sharing the experience of encountering a problem
qualifies for being added to the contributors' list -- but I might offer
you a prime location in the upcoming "with lots of pestering from"
section ;)
