Another solution we thought of is to add in dummy head levels in an additional first-pass. So the first pass would add in any extra <head> elements based on the difference between it and the previous head. So <head level="1> ... <head level="5"> would get <head> of levels 2-4 added immediately before it. Then the grouping itself becomes really quite simple. Many thanks, -James
