Paul, my only concern is with re-ordering entries in a list. That to me comes close to changing the content. If I have a list <ol> <li>one <li>two <li>there </ol> If it automatically renders, three two one that is close to changing content or at least the meaning. Not so much that it greatly bothers me though. Since the TOC is generally created from headings, I have no problem with automatically creating it.
