Using \startxtable gives an error, whereas \startembeddedxtable does not. What is the cause, what is the difference?
That’s a side effect of the implementation of the buffer mechanism which is used by xtables, as a result of this you can’t use buffer environments in the argument of another command.
Error: Runaway argument?
\xmlflush {test::4}\stopxtable \endgroup

Working:
\startxmlsetups xmlcommon:table
\startembeddedxtable[
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopembeddedxtable
\stopxmlsetups
Not working:
\startxmlsetups xmlcommon:table
\startxtable
\xmlflush{#1}
\stopxtable
\stopxmlsetups
Calling this with:
\usemodule[hvdm-xml] % contains simple definitions for <table> <tr> <td> through \startxcell etc.
The version of your module on tlcontrib don’t contain such definitions.
