Can't speak for others, but I've noticed this problem for quite a while. I always go through and check chapter titles by hand and make necessary page breaks before making the toc. It only takes a minute unless your book is really large, and even then you have to do it.
Can't answer your other question, but I was looking at the Book Designer site the other day and noticed that vvv is still posting there and that Astra, who occasionally posts here, understands Russian so perhaps he could respond and tell us what he knows about what's going on.
