I am aware of that.  Sorry for being unclear.  I would like to automate
exactly that.

I use several LaTeX export classes and I would like that possibility
(TOC with unnumbered sections/subsections/...) in each of these classes.
Thus, I am searching for a (more) general approach, that I could 'switch on'
and have it insert the latex statement on its own.

Best,
Andreas
