Yes, according to the extension page, LST can transclude ordinary sections, but
it cannot itself be transcluded:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Labeled_Section_Transclusion#Limitations
Fortunately, all of the common use cases that we have discussed do not require
transclusion. For your concerns about the technical hurdles involved in
resolving this bug as FIXED, I think we should defer to the extension
maintainer. However, I think you're saying that LST performs it's work after
the MediaWiki parser is done, which you conclude means that the <section />
tags would output literally for the web browser, instead of being interpreted
by the MW parser. More clearly, the procedure would like this:
1. #tag expanded by MW parser into <section /> tags.
2. <section /> tags expanded by LST.
If the above is correct, then I suspect that order of operations will not be a
problem, assuming you're right (and I'm paraphrasing your comment correctly)
that LST is doing string replacement after the MediaWiki parser has finished
its work. If those 2 steps above were reversed, then we would have a more
difficult problem, but certainly nothing that's impossible.
I feel like I've misunderstood something.
