Is there a way to design this kind of table of contents for ebooks?

I have a book with 25 chapters containing over 500 sections. I need to link each section with the ToC which is resulting in a very long ToC spanning multiple pages. So if I could make a newspaper style ToC, it would be much easier to navigate.
a 2 column mode is fraught with issues., which may be why it is not supported.

What happens on a 3 inch screen? KISS, just make a single column and avoid those kinds of (tablerelated ) issues
