Because it would have to mach TEXT against destination code, so it would
be fragile (i.e. if you modify how timestamps are transcoded, you have
to modify this regexp accordingly).

If it has to be implemented, it's far easier to remove objects from
parsed data (e.g. in `org-export-get-optional-title').

I have a patch ready with `org-export-with-timestamps-in-toc' variable,
but as I was writing it, I realized it might not be necessary to apply
it. I'd like to avoid over-engineering as much as possible, hence the
question.
