Can simple XML bits of fieldset form input controls be shared across dashboards in Splunk 6.2?

I see how to share portions of html with ``. And panels can now be shared.

I have a set of dashboards which all share fieldset form input controls, and they're copied manually. Is there a way to put them into a file and include it in each dashboard?

You can create Prebuilt Panel in Settings/User interface/Prebuilt panels/Add new
It can look like
<panel>
<searchString>index=_internal | head 100 | stats count by sourcetype</searchString>

</input type="radio" token="field1">
</input>
</panel>

To add Prebuilt Panel to Dashboard
<row>
<panel ref="Name of created Prebuilt Panel" app="Name of App"></panel>
</row>

Name of App is optional if Prebuilt Panel is in current App

This doesn't seem to work for panels. Panels can not have fieldsets, and the schema for simplexml seems to only allow fieldsets to be children of forms.

Is there a way to share fieldsets across dashboards?

You are right, fieldset cannot be part of panel
But if you have input inside of panel you do not need to have fieldset
