This is an instance where groff 1.23.0 might be a convenience rather
than a horror show.
commit 2a99e14dc1ffd73c48457709deb8a6115b955955
Author: G. Branden Robinson <g.branden.robinson@gmail.com>

[ms]: Apply depth-specific indents to TOC entries.
* tmac/s.tmac (XH-UPDATE-TOC): Modify Keith Marshall's new XN/XH feature
to indent TOC entries by section heading depth. The increment is 2
ens per depth level.

Also, for your enjoyment (I hope), I'm attach a document groff started
shipping (again) in 1.23.0. You might find it both familiar and
strange. This edition of it is from bleeding-edge Git.
I would very much appreciate your feedback on it.
Regards,
Branden
