Context independent solutions (for chapter, substitute
sect1 as appropriate)
last chapter in document: test="not(following::chapter)"
last chapter in parent element:
test="not(following-sibling::chapter)"
last chapter in subtree starting at parent element
test="not(following-sibling::*[descendant-or-self::chapter)"
I think you want the first.
