I have enabled numbered headings but I think this should be bypassed when the heading is just a single letter (used quite a lot in alphabetical lists) as it looks quite strange. See http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Latin_phrases if you have headers enabled to see what I mean.
Actually, perhaps it would be better to put a colon between the number and header. "6: F" instead of "6 F", which looks like a school class name.
Thoughts?

I think that what would be good here would be a flag on the TOC code, which if set in the page would instead generate a horizontal linkbar of the type A | B | C | D... which is commonly used in such circumstances.

I think on all pages it looks a little strange to have no separator between the number and the text. I think "1. heading" would be better than "1 heading". A colon would look OK too I think, but that would be my second choice.
