Thanks for the report!

- missing ToC is bug 121146
- missing cross-reference is bug 128955
- missing lists is either bug 115376 or bug 131513

There are quite a few issues with the EPUB filter, but the ones you listed are already tracked. Because I have to pick one, I'll make this report a duplicate of bug 128955. Please feel free to comment in the linked reports if you have something to add about those issues.
