Do you mean you want section numbering for, say,  sect1,
sect2, and sect3, but that sect4 and below should just show
the title? I don't think there is such a parameter yet.
But Norm has said he will take suggestions for things
people want to control with parameters.  I would submit
that as a feature request at docbook.sourceforge.net.

That parameter controls how many section levels appear
in the generated table of contents, and its default is "3", so
you wouldn't see any effect.
