I have a quick and (very) dirty calibre plugin which can do what you want. It is nowhere near polished enough to be an official community share but it may be of some help as a quick-start project if you are planning to dip your toes in calibre plugin/python waters. PM me if you decide to go ahead.

Just a caveat, though, in case you aren't already aware ... Kobo make heavy use of the TOC when importing new books. If your epub edits have included changes to the TOC then simply overwriting the device's old epub/kepub with the calibre library's newly edited version will probably result in an unreadable book on the Kobo and you'll need to delete the old before re-sending the new. If you've only corrected things like typos, broken paragraphs, CSS, ... then a simple overwrite should be fine. I'm only guessing, but I suspect that if this inconvenient TOC business didn't exist then davidfor would have already included the feature you asked for in the calibre KoboTouch driver and/or the Kobo Utilities plugin.
