Ah, it's much easier to use \stopcontents[level-i] to end contents
collection.  Revising the example:

     \documentclass{book}
     \usepackage{titletoc}
     \begin{document}
     \part{p1}
     \startcontents[level-0]
     \printcontents[level-0]{}{0}{\setcounter{tocdepth}{2}}
     \chapter{c1}
     \startcontents[level-1]
     \printcontents[level-1]{}{1}{\setcounter{tocdepth}{1}}
     \section{s1} \subsection{s2}
     \stopcontents[level-1]
     \chapter{c2}
     \section{s3}
     \stopcontents[level-0]
     \part{p2}\chapter{c3}
     \end{document}

Note that the contents is determined by the .pcf file.  Maybe that's
easier to to understand than my babeling.  Also, "pcf" should be added
to `org-latex-logfiles-extensions'.

Great.

I meant to insert \startcontents[ID-level] after each, say, chapter
unconditionally rather than inserterting as few
\startcontents[ID-level] as possible.  But ignore that:
\stopcontents[ID-level] it's much cleaner.

No idea.  Both makes sense, but maybe including the TOC-title is too
verbose?  In any case, I think it's easy to add a title if you.  Based
on article.cls and book.cls, I think we can generalize the toc-title
to "heading one level down in level and unnumbered with title
\contentsname".  The TOC title for chapter is thus
\section*{\contentsname}.  For \part it's \chapter*{\contentsname}.  I
guess you can use the cdr in level part of `org-latex-classes', though
it would be incompatible with e.g. \addsec{·} of KOMA-Script.

Article.cls:

\newcommand\tableofcontents{%
    \section*{\contentsname
        address@hidden
           \MakeUppercase\contentsname}{\MakeUppercase\contentsname}}%
    address@hidden
    }

Book.cls:

\newcommand\tableofcontents{%
    address@hidden
      address@hidden
    \else
      address@hidden
    \fi
    \chapter*{\contentsname
        address@hidden
           \MakeUppercase\contentsname}{\MakeUppercase\contentsname}}%
    address@hidden
    address@hidden
    }
