I think it is (still) a good default to be able to say that the static and interactive index have the same content. I agree that headings that begin with a perceived section number are somewhat problematic. While it might be possible to detect/skip a leading dotted-number "word", I think a simpler algorithm to index under the first letter is simpler to explain and mostly good enough. (It would only be less than ideal if the first word is an alphanumeric sequence like `802.11az`) ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/14312#issuecomment-1579060110
