Or the org-toc package seems to do this, or almost this. I don't know
if it counts as "vanilla", but it's part of the org-plus-contrib
package.

It doesn't seem to do a narrowing thing by default, but I'll bet it
wouldn't be hard to add.

Actually, thanks for reminding me this exists! It's pretty useful.
