  instantiate_entry
  Do any dynamic information replacement for information

  statically in the entry and must be retrieved from the specific datalist
  when outputting the entry.

    [a, b, d, e, f]
    [a, b, e, z, z, y]

    namelist_differs_index([a, b, c, d, e]) -> 2
    namelist_differs_index([a]) -> 1

  namelist_differs_nth
    Returns true if some other name list differs at passed nth place
    and is at least as long

    namelist_differs_nth([a, b, c, d, e], 3) = 1

    if there is another name list like any of these:

    [a, b, d, e, f]
    [a, b, e, z, z, y]
