The same as you style nested elements now.

I wouldn't think so.

You mean how far down they are nested? Or how much other content is
between <section> and <h>? If the former, the answer is yes.

h {...}
h h {...}
h h h {...}
etc.

Depending on the structure of your pages, it can be useful to have ids
on all your headings to allow linking directly to them. But no, there's
not much point purely for styling purposes.
