Thanks!
I am slightly concerned about generality of dropping ALT_TITLE from
unnumbered sectioning command.

From LaTeX2e reference manual, I see

    Structure your text into divisions: parts, chapters, sections, etc. All sectioning commands
    have the same form, one of:
    
      sectioning-command{title}
      sectioning-command*{title}
      sectioning-command[toc-title]{title}

But can we assume that unnumbered entries never appear in the table of
contents?

Even better would be a test and a proper patch with commit message.
Do you have time for that?
