This is more like org-toc.el, though I'm not sure if it can be
configured to pick up figures.

Using org-element it should be at least be relatively easy to pick up
the structure of the document, though I think the reftex/org-toc way
of displaying such structure is superior to something tied to a
specific line in the buffer (I may want to jump to somewhere from the
bottom of my file).
