new feature `dynindent` for ToC entry style `toctext`
KOMA-Script is a bundle of versatile LaTeX classes and packages
                
                Brought to you by:
                
                    kohm
                    
                
            
            
        
        
        
    For example in cases like shown in my answer to Section and subsection numbers overlaping in the ToC it would be useful to have support for dynindent not only with ToC style tocline but also toctext. So the manual correction of indent+=.4em to the indent + width of the numbers of the previous level would not be needed and
\DeclareTOCStyleEntry[…,indent+=.4em]{toctext}{subsection}
could be replaced by
\DeclareTOCStyleEntry[…,dynindent]{toctext}{subsection}
So the user would not need to know the indent of the previous level resp. find it out by try and error.
Ah, ok, in case of using
dynindentalso for the parent level this is somehow more complicated than I thought after reading your first request.Would it be useful? Yes.
Will it be added to KOMA-Script 3.46? I don't know, because there are already several new features in KOMA-Script 3.46 that need to be tested (but AFAIK currently nobody feels responsible to test before the release).

Tested with the example at TeX.SX and it works like charm.
