I'd be happy to hear others' suggestions as well.  I don't have a strong
preference, but if forced to choose would put text in all three places.
(That is, others should feel free to choose "just section 3.1" and not
force me to choose, if they want.)

Thanks for putting together the proposals,

Benjamin
