I thought I'd tested them against a plain list when trying to find a
way around that limitation.  I'll have to try again tomorrow so that I
can eliminate the limitations still present regarding descriptive
lists.

Usually no, but the sample (orgguide.org) document uses @@info:...@@
to create @kbd, @key and @samp output, without it the document will
fail to export correctly (especially since @ is used for texinfo
commands).

I suppose I should have clarified that those two commands were
required prior to exporting that specific document (for testing and
demonstration purposes).
