What are the hardest missions in those entries under these conditions: Expert mode (obviously), getting all loot, no knockouts nor killing supernatural creatures unless it's absolutely necessary (that is to reach loot, achieve a goal or in case you're cornered, nothing more)?

So, ghost (perfect thief) mode?
These are the hardest missions for me:
TG:
The Mage Towers
Return to the Cathedral
T2:
First City Bank and Trust
Masks
All missions in T2X are relatively easy.

Yeah, to get rid of the priest and his acolyte is a real pain in the arse, even more if you only are going to get Hammerite junk. But let's not forget that Garrett "stole a vase on his first day with the Keepers". He seems like the kind of thief who would bother.

I think that hammer cannot even be gotten within ghost rules. You have to either catch an extremely rare bug when the novice turns around, or deliberately alert those guys so they'll leave the area. You can get away with a bunch of 2nd alerts, but at least no 3rd alerts :D Anyway, ghosting is out of the question.

Casing the Joint is hard simply because finding 100% of the loot is hard.
Really now. You're sure it's not hard because you're forced to ghost the entire smegging mission?

Since this thread lists ghosting as a condition
Huh? The original post says nothing about ghosting.

That sounds like Lytha mode. Ghosting would also require no second-level alerts and a few other details.
Also, the gold hammer in Cragscleft can be acquired while ghosting, if you're willing to leave your computer on for ~12 hours so the novice fidgets across the room. Check this playthrough by tarvis79 (skip about to about 1:35:00):

Anyway, as to the original question, here are my picks:
TDP/G: Thieves' Guild; Escape!
TMA: Sabotage at Soulforge
T2X: The Grand Hotel

Because of the amount of patience you require to complete it?

How many modes exist?

Thieves' Guild and Escape by a long shot. T2 doesn't have any mission that comes close to these two, though I consider Soulforge to be quite difficult in places.

My picks are based on the official Ghost rules, although I know that's not exactly what the OP referred to.
TG:
1. Escape!
2. The Haunted Cathedral (the only mission that can't be perfect thieved)
3. Thieves' Guild
T2:
1. Kidnap (by far)
2. Sabotage at Soulforge (instant bust)
3. First City Bank & Trust
T2X:
1. The Grand Hotel (the only real tough mission)
2. Shadowing the Enemy (have not yet been able to get perfect thief)
3. None (all the rest are easy)
