Somehow this TOC post flew under the radar, or didn't spark any interest. I've since rummaged around and figured out a partial solution to one of the two questions.
I restored real title headings to the top of the TOC content pane (as opposed to captions) by editing the shadow tiddler $:/core/macros/toc and replacing <h1><<toc-caption>></h1> (toward the end, in section starting \define toc-tabbed-external- ) with <h1><$link><$view field='title'/></$link></h1> But after throwing nearly an hour at it, I still am having no success at getting the toc-link[no] tiddlers to disappear altogether from the TOC left pane.
