Mauritz,
The pros may have a better suggestion, but in the meantime, I solved this
problem by overriding the section object.title.template in my customization
layer.
The SAE Standards body has a convention that there can only be a trailing
dot for level 1, and no trailing dot elsewhere. Here's what I use:
<xsl:template match="section" mode="object.title.template">
<xsl:text>%n</xsl:text>
<xsl:if test="parent::article">
<!-- trailing dot only for top level sections -->
<xsl:text>.</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:text> %t</xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
If you left out the <xsl:if test="parent::article">...</xsl:if> I think it
would do what you wanted and never add a trailing dot anywhere.
I also have to be consistent in the TOC, so I make SAE happy, and keep to
the trailing dot convention with the following:
<!-- Override template in autotoc.xsl to get SAE toc.line format -->
<xsl:template name="toc.line.prefix">
<xsl:param name="label" select="''"/>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="name()='section' and ancestor::appendix">
<xsl:text>APPENDIX</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name()='appendix'">
<xsl:text>APPENDIX</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name()='figure'">
<xsl:text>FIGURE</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
<xsl:when test="name()='table'">
<xsl:text>TABLE</xsl:text>
</xsl:when>
</xsl:choose>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
<xsl:if test="$label != ''">
<xsl:copy-of select="$label"/>
</xsl:if>
<xsl:if test="parent::article">
<!-- trailing dot only for top level sections -->
<xsl:text>.</xsl:text>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:template>
