It's kind of a toss-up, I think. One thing to consider, though, is that
your first choice will work as is (w/out XSL) with CSS1- and
partial-CSS2-compliant browsers which don't yet support CSS's
generated-text feature. The first choice also makes it easier to customize
headings which might vary by document instance; whether that's an issue
depends on your application.
