It's a simple question, but there's no simple answer.

Remember that xsl:number bundles two operations: finding out the number, and
formatting it for display. You need to split these two operations:

<xsl:variable name="n"> 
  <xsl:number.../>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:number value="number($n) + 1" format="...."/>

This also means you can't use level="multiple" - but you can always break
level="multiple" into a sequence of level="single" calls at different
levels.
