Hi Bastien,

At the end of the mail is the output of `diff old.html new.html`, most
differences are caused by time and randomly generated ids.

The only exception is the Table-of-Content entries, which now has two
spaces before each section title. I find that the org-html--format-toc-headline
function first appends “. “ after each section number, and then appends
the output of html-format-headline-default-function. Thus, after moving
the space to the head of html-format-headline-default-function, there are
two spaces.

Then the problem becomes more complicated, and it might be difficult to solve
it without changing the original behavior.

I can come up with three options:

1. Stay with the two spaces in ToC, since extra spaces seldom change the
   appearance of rendered html. But it would cause problems when users use
   custom org-html-format-headline-function.

2. Further modify the org-html--format-toc-headline function to remove
   the logic of appending “. “ as below. Then the section heading in both
   the text and the ToC will have the format of “1 Section-Text”, without
   “.”. However, this changes the original appearance of ToC.

             (apply (plist-get info :html-format-headline-function)
                    todo todo-type priority text tags :section-number nil)))))



3. Based on the second solution, further update the 
org-html-format-headline-default-function
   to append “. “ by default (rather than “ “) like below. This keeps the
   original ToC content unchanged, but changes the default in-text section
   heading format by appending one more “.” after the section number.

Both option 2 and 3 give users better control over of the section heading
format, but will alter the current behavior of html export.

What do you think?
