I don't know if it's more graceful, but I use a run-in paragraph for
<$chapnum> and a separate in-column paragraph for the rest. This puts
everything on the same line (if it fits), but allows the page number to have
its own left indent and tab stop settings. A single right-aligned tab stop
then works whether the TOC entry flows to one line or two.
