I think part of the problem I've been having with coming up with
examples where a TOC is inappropriate/needed is that it is currently
only implemented on the test Wikipedia, and I don't really spend much
time just "browsing" the test server. I believe that when the TOC
feature is on the live server, then cases where it needs to be
overridden will become apparent. Then again, perhaps not.
Again, just as the Sticky-Note Main Page should be an optional skin, the TOC
feature should be an optional user function.
*At least* initially. Neither should have been/be inserted as the new
default mechanism.
