Playground to oberve the bug and play with it.

This bug report has some similarity with https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=164905, but I think, it is a different one.

However I do not understand, why the headings are split in the first example of #164905 and why the page number is given twice there.

This bug report relates to Version: 25.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community

Tabs which appear in a heading are always replaced by a space. This prevents the user from vertically aligning the text parts of the headlines from a numbering scheme in the headlines themselves by giving the TOC prototypes sufficient hanging indentation.

See attached document, which is also a playground to add tabs to headlines and observe the (not existing) result on a generated TOC for the document.
