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.
Ummm... that's why davidfor has the "Do not treat replacements as new books" checkbox on the Collections, covers and uploads" tab of the KoboTouch driver. I've only used that option once when I updated the covers on a mass of epubs but made no changes to the text and ToC. With a few hundred books, the time saved by not losing my annotations of errors on a dozen or so was worth the risk.
