IIRC, Carsten had run a poll for the nomination of the 50 most-use{d|ful}
variables. The results must be somewhere (Worg? Mailing list?). That
would probably serve as a better starting point than a 931-element list
with no other indicator of importance.
Also, Bernt's document (http://doc.norang.ca/org-mode.html ) probably
contains settings for most (if not all) of the important variables.
After that, you can start looking at more obscure ones. Many of those
were introduced as part of a user-requested feature, so you can probably
get some background information on them by searching the mailing list.
