An example: Thror's map in "The Hobbit". Although I guess pretty much all editions show the map (if at all) at the beginning of the book, I believe it could be better to show it only when it appears in the story, and yet have a link to it in the TOC.

Again, Jellby beat me to it, but: a list of illustrations. A list of images (we did a book that was about a famous modern painter; a large part of the navigational elements were links with captioned comments about the individual works); other such elements. As Jellby said, maps. Sub-items which are not structural (for example, charts, lists, diagrams).
Lots of "stuff" that could go in an NCX, but isn't necessarily structural. I am big on "all
headings should be structural, not stylistic," but, not all NCX or TOC entries need be structural. (Ah, I feel myself sliding into Wonderland here. The Cheshire Cat will be here soon.)
