I must acknowledge that the boxquote stuff wrapping your e-mails always
looked a bit weird to me.. I usually see this as a way to quote emails
or code examples, not to encapsulate your own prose.

I don't see any way to make boxquotes works with the TOC anyway, since
there would be too many complexity when displaying several levels at the
same time.

But I like the idea of having some kind of margin, just as linum.el does
for line numbers:

  http://stud4.tuwien.ac.at/~e0225855/linum/linum.html

What kind of information you would like to be displayed in this margin?
(Remember there is org-toc-info already, so the margin and the echo-area
should work in a complementary way.)

We could have a whole new set of customizable faces for org-toc-mode, I
will consider this.

I don't know "h-line"... did you mean "hl-line? I think the purpose of
global-hl-line-mode is only to highlight the current line, not several
lines.

I tried to insert this at the end of a file:

  # Local Variables:
  # eval: (org-show-table-of-contents)
  # End:

but it requires M-x normal-mode, which I don't understand. Even by
setting both `enable-local-variables' and `enable-local-eval' to t
(which is not recommended!) ... any hint on this is welcome!
