There was mention of TDP (blocked Gibbs higher up in the paper) vs collapsed Gibbs sampling - both mentioned burn-in and lag. I was under the impression you would have to be using one of these two to do the computation, see page 137 of the paper just below the pictures, second paragraph http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~jordan/papers/blei-jordan-ba.pdf
I could be mistaken though, this paper is pretty gnarly! As far as handling missing values, that is an API concern that has not been fleshed out yet. So I would not concentrate on it at this time, other algorithms like low rank matrix completion would need to figure this out before having the potential to be added. AKA what Andy said (so fast at email!)
