Actually, my recomendation was not to use H tags at all but to create
CSS classes that accurately reproduce the appearce of Header tags.
This most certainly not very Accessibility-friendly as it breaks the
natural labeling provided by the Header tag.  Most accessibility
aides and rely upon such clues in the code for accurate presentation.
 Also, any script that processes the page might benefit from such
labeling.  It really all really turns on whether the Acessibility is
a requirement for the site.

Before we get too far afield here, perhaps this should be ported to
another topic....
