The semantic structure of my document follows a recursive style.

Section NAME
Introduction narrative
  Sub-section NAME
  Introduction narrative
    Sub-sub-section NAME
    text
    Sub-sub-section NAME
    text
  narrative <-----
  Sub-Section NAME
  narrative

If a section (at whatever level) has sub-sections then usually prior to 
those sub-sections there is some introductory narrative which outlines 
the problems to be addressed in the sub-sections.

This is recursive as the sub-sections follow the same style.

The difficulty occurs at the end of a run of sub-sections where the 
section narrative carries on using the solution provided by the 
sub-sections.

First, there are no visual demarcations to show that the sub-section has 
ended and that we are back to the section - but I could manage that if 
it were not for the next probem:

Second, there is no logical representation of the ending of a 
sub-section, because the section/sub-section blocks refer only to the 
title and not to the content.

It was mentioned a long time ago that a change may be made in this 
respect - perhaps sub-sections would be handled in a similar fashion to 
enumerate, which always chooses the next enumerate sub-type, so that 
enumerate can properly be listed.

I don't see any reason why I should not put together such a style set 
now, but I invite comment.
