I support the use case of unnumbered table of contents.
In addition (although this is probably too much of a corner case to
support officially in Org Mode), it is common in the U.S. to use a mix
of numbered and unnumbered headings in books. One accomplishes this in
LaTeX with the following:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\tableofcontents
\chapter*{Introduction}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Introduction}
\chapter{A Chapter}
\chapter{Another Chapter}
\chapter*{Conclusion}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Introduction}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
The resulting Table of Contents looks like this...
Introduction 3
1 A Chapter 5
2 Another Chapter 7
Conclusion 9
Best,
Matt
