This example fails for me using the current (2014-09-27) standalone beta 
and with TL14. The failure is that the list of authors is presented as a 
grid without contents.

Changing any of the lines in the example that construct the table cells, 
such as

    \bTD \structureuservariable{author} \eTD

to

    \bTD xx \structureuservariable{author} \eTD

results in a table with the new text, but no user variable text, showing 
that the \structureuservariable commands are not returning any text in 
this example.

Has something relevant changed since the example was prepared (2010-11 
or earlier)?

(A pointer to useful descriptions of \structureuservariable and 
\structurelistuservariable would also be welcome. In the wiki, the 
startsection command description describes the former, but I have come 
across no comprehensive description for either in the documentation.)
