[but \noindent has not effect] (I'm using koma-article class with extra
options, packages and a big preamble)

I didn't get this to work. It just sets the line in the TOC left-aligned
(weird), same with \hspace*. However, following your advice I read the
classfile and noticed \hskip which does work. This is typographically
perfect:
\addtocontents{toc}{ \hskip -1.5em SOMETEXT \protect \linebreak }
I tried to define a new command to shorten this:
\newcommand{\addtoc}[1]{\addtocontents{toc}{ \protect \hskip -1.5em #1 \protect
\linebreak }}
\addtoc{SOMETEXT}
But this does NOT work. It looks same as without \hskip, no matter whether
I put \protect or not. This is not so important, I can live without this
new command. But to enhance my understanding of LaTeX, I'd like to hear
what is the problem.
By the way, I got "LaTeX companion" from library so hopefully my
understanding gets better.
