Sounds good in principle, but in practice the journal styles are so far removed from the standard LaTeX styles that it's more useful to think of them as independent entities, rather than as variants of standard LaTeX styles. However, article is probably closer than book to what is used in most journals. > The motivation for tables of contents is hyperlinks: A hyperlinked > table of contents makes an article more accessible when read > electronically. Seems to me that ONE table of contents per issue would be enough (with links to it from each article/chapter); why the need for a separate TOC in each chapter---or am I confused? > Would this be a reasonable request to make of the latex project?
