If the grid is based on the body text line height, then having a heading snap to a multiple is usually way too much line height for a multi-line heading. There are some finer-grained grids at a fraction of body text line height where snapping headings will work for Latin text. My expectation is that headings in Latin text will usually be box-snapped to the grid. That allows an appropriate line height for single- and multiple-line headings while giving some good options for how they interact with the grid. You can see screenshots for two of these options in the last two images in this blog post [1]. Thanks, Alan [1] http://blogs.adobe.com/webplatform/2014/02/05/baseline-grids-for-the-web/
