Is it possible you are mistaken? I get similar results with 5.1.13.
I think you need to use a macro to concatenate your style settings and your
dictionary values. This works, for instance:
\define myhighlightedtext() @@background-color:$(bgc)$;Text to be
highlighted @@
<$set name=bgc value={{$:/palettes/Editor##highlight}}>
<<myhighlightedtext>>
</$set>
Good luck!
