The tech doc says "Skipping levels in the sequence of headings may create the impression that the structure of the document has not been properly thought through or that specific headings have been chosen for their visual rendering rather than their meaning" http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-WCAG20-TECHS-20060427/#H42 So it appears that skipping levels is OK, even for level 3 compliance.
