Re:  Separator for xsl:number @format
I don't think this can be achieved directly; you'll need to use some
workaround. For example, generate the number as A#1 and then post-process to
strip out the '#'. Alternatively, I sometimes find it works better not to use
level=multiple, and instead use a series of calls to xsl:number for the
individual levels.
