one has got already the answer. :-) ]

\DeclareTemplate{contentsobject}{JB1}{7}{

  pre-action       =+f0 []         \COpre@action,

  post-action      =+f0 []         \COpost@action,

  decls            =+f0 []         \COobject@decl,

  left-margin      =+l  [15pt]     \@tempdimd,

  right-margin     =+l  [\@pnumwidth]  \@tempdime,

  right-adjust     =+l  [\ttl@corr]    \@tempdimb,

  label-format     =+f0 [\thecontentslabel]  \COnumber@format,

  label-width      =+l  [15pt]     \@tempdima,

  title-format     =+f1 [#1]       \COtitle@format,

  title-format-nolabel =+f1 [\COtitle@format{#1}]  \COtitle@format@nolbl,

  leaders-text     =+f0 [.]        \COleaders@action,
