I tried to implement your solution proposal, assuming that I understood you
correctly, but it does not work:

1. I disabled the option "Protect against manual changes" in the TOC settings -
something which I do not like to do. But I did that in order to be able to
implement the following steps:

2. I defined an individual paragraph style "Contents 1 Alternative" based on
the paragraph style "Contents 1". In this individual style I set the values for
the Indents & Spacing to 0 in the fields "Before text" and "First line", and I
set the Outline Level to Level 1.

3. In the TOC I assigned the chapter title "Table of Figures" to the individual
style "Contents 1 Alternative".

This causes the chapter title "Table of Figures" being displayed at the right
edge of the text area in the TOC (not desired), and a second line is displayed
below that which only shows single dots and the page number at the right edge
of the text area (not desired). Refer to the attached screenshot.

4. If I then update the TOC, the chapter titles "Table of Figures" and
"Bibliography" are again not directly displayed at the left edge of the text
area of the TOC, but at the same vertical position as the chapter titles of
chapter 1 to 9, i. e. in the same way as previously described here in this bug
report in issue 5.

So this does not work.

By the way, if one defines a tab stop on the Entries tab in the TOC settings,
how can I delete this tab stop again? It's not possible.
