The thing is, it's not an easy task to write a plugin to pull out the ToC and put it in a database. An internal ToC does not have a specific format. So the plugin would have to try to handle this. ePub is easier since you can use the external ToC. But Mobi or KF8, not so easy.

And the returns are not going to be worth it for just one person.
