Unless you implement a manual or scripted solution as Mark suggests,
you probably can't -- I noted in the first post that the
out-of-the-box solution only works when the heads are on the same
page.
Just in passing, from a reader's point of view, it probably doesn't
give me any useful information to know what the next subtopic
(Heading2) is, especially if it's several pages away. Knowing the
topic that's on the page though, could be helpful, especially if
you're skimming for info.

But my Head2 is not necessarily on the same page. I could have a Head1
and an introduction that is long and makes the text flow onto the next
page so the Head 2 starts on the next page. So how do I compensate for
that?
Thank you,

Yup: this '+' notation also allows you to create 'dictionary' style
spanned headers, like 'Aardvark-Avocet', 'Bantam-Broiler', kind of
stuff. I've used it when typesetting directories.
