Very similar to what you're trying, so I'm not sure if this helps, but I
successfully altered the book-titling snippet
( http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=368 ) to get a dotted line in the
table of contents, as follows:
diff --git a/book-titling.ily b/book-titling.ily
index b1fcf9e..4a9f03e 100644
--- a/book-titling.ily
+++ b/book-titling.ily

\combine \null \vspace #2
}
tocPieceMarkup = \markup \fill-line {
- \line-width-ratio #0.7 \fill-with-pattern #1 #RIGHT .
+ \line-width-ratio #0.7 \fill-line {
\line { \fromproperty #'toc:text }
\fromproperty #'toc:page
-
+ }
}
tocSectionMarkup = \markup \italic \column {
\fill-line { \fromproperty #'toc:text }
