I am not sure this is the right question - as no answers would mean we want to
do this rather drastic change :-)

This is the respective information from Mediawiki side:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Table_of_contents#Auto-numbering

I am personally cautious about just changing the default as this is not a way
what big wiki sites use and I was also afraid it would change not only design
pages, but also our title page for example, as it uses sections too.
