With other versions of TeX (eplain comes to mind) You can edit the
TOC file external to the tex program, and then take a second run
without recording page numbers. There is a command for this.
With Context this might be too complex. 

I see no problem with having a page number on chapter 1 however.
Most books look that way. The Chicago Manual of Style  has:

Proofs (a chapter)   91
Introduction (a section)  91
