I was trying to make it exactly as the styles reportlab created (thus the 
[2]), then I had to use -1 to get the correct leftIndent and never changed the 
rest of it ;-)

Indeed if I use [-1] it works.

I still need to tell SVN from 2.3 because we subclass TableOfContents and 
there is a 

                leftColStyle = self.levelStyles[left_col_level]

which needs to be changed to 

                leftColStyle=self.getLevelStyle(left_col_level)
