I don't quite get this part. Does that string need to be inserted only
after the second sibling (i.e., not after the third, too)? What happens
if there is no other sibling?

The patch will not insert "\usepackage{titletoc}" for the user, however,
à la `org-latex-listings'.

What do you call the "brute force"?

What do you mean?

I can try to implement it.

I also note that these tocs do not have any title. Would it make sense
to remove title from local tocs in other back-ends too?

Thanks for your feedback.
