I can point you to fo/titlepage.templates.xml (note the
.xml suffix). That file specifies how titles are
formatted, and the one for 'section' includes an
indent of -4pc (picas).
The idea is to edit a copy of titlepage.templates.xml
to change the settings for your customization.
Then you apply the special stylesheet template/titlepage.xsl
to generate a customized titlepage.templates.xsl as output.
Then your Docbook customization layer should use that
stylesheet module for titles.
