The issue is now resolved.

very much for the AZW3 hint, eschwartz, which set me off in the right direction. Here is how it can be accomplished:

Convert your HTML file into AZW3 in Calibre.
Using Calibre's editor, move the ToC section to wherever you would like to have it in your e-book, then save the AZW3 file.
Perform an AZW3 to MOBI conversion in Calibre. Somewhat illogically, check the Do not add Table of Contents to book option on the MOBI Output settings screen.
Voilà! The MOBI file has retained the ToC location from the AZW3 file without adding any additonal ToC screen to the beginning or ending of the MOBI file – and the ToC menu button is functional as well.
