I didn't mean that the user would have to supply all this; I mean't
that these should/could be the default values, if the functionality
I'm asking for were to be added to reftex.

Well, it's already pretty sophisticated, and I don't think this counts
as an argument against improving it.

That would be a little less confusing, but I would really like the
numbers shown in the toc buffer to correspond to the numbers in the
compiled document; when implementing the corrections resulting from
proofreading a printed copy that would make it a lot easier to
navigate.
Well, in any case I see from the replies that I didn't overlook
something in the manual. The developers may consider this as a feature
request; but if its too hard to implement, if it would make parsing the
document a lot slower, or if I'm the only person in the world who
thinks this would be an improvement, I can live with the current
behaviour.
