Summary: qandaentry and TOC: question is not title!

Initial Comment:
when the qandaentry/question is large or complex, it
does not make sense to place it into the generated TOC.
e.g.,

<qandaentry id="faq-random">
 <blockinfo><title>Is &random; broken?</title></blockinfo>
 <question id="faq-random-q"><para>Why does
   <screen>&sh-prompt; clisp &opt-x; '(&random;
1s0)'</screen>
   always print the same number?</para></question>
<answer><para>Reproducibility is important.
  See <xref
linkend="random-state"/>.</para></answer></qandaentry>

(for other examples, search for blockinfo in
http://clisp.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/clisp/clisp/doc/faq.xml)

putting the whole question element (with para/screen)
into the TOC does not make any sense, the TOC should
contain a shorter version specified in the blockinfo/title.

I suggested using qandaentry/blockinfo/title for TOC
instead of qandaentry/question when it is non-void in
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=373750&aid=1254533&group_id=21935
apparently this is no longer an option in 5.0.

I propose adding a facility for the user to specify the
appearance of the TOC entry for a question.
