Since pdf-tools is in NonGNU ELPA, this is not a problem, no.

Sounds handy, thanks.  FWIW, I tend to agree with Jean that the name
suggests its purpose is more general (more like a kind of speedbar/imenu
maybe).  Furthermore the "-mode" part of the name suggests it's a major
mode to edit some standard "toc" files rather than an actual tool to
extract things for non-toc files and then edit those files.

So I'd support a renaming (in case you're out of ideas, maybe
"toc-edit/edit-doc-toc", tho maybe "create-doc-toc" is more precise
since it doesn't seem to care very much about editing an existing toc),
but I don't have a strong opinion about it.

Once you've made up your mind about the package name, let me know so
I can add it to `elpa.git`.

Indeed, except for the copyright line which needs to be adjusted.

The patch below does that along with the obligatory cosmetic tweaks.
I also include the remaining compilation warnings.
