Hmm...italics could be a desirable piece of formatting to include.

Possibly, although what if the text is formatted white on a black page, and the
ToC has a white page bg?

What about size of text? I think that the text in the ToC should all be
(roughly) the same size, height, etc, otherwise you'll have 36pt text next to
10pt text.

I'm going to toss this one over to the UX Team to see if they have some good
suggestions for what kind of formatting should (and shouldn't) be scrubbed
before being displayed in the ToC.
