That should be fine.

If you look at the roster form, you'll see that the properties
returned are attributes of the getRoster() method.  If you look at the
MembershipTool, you'll see that this method only returns a subset of
member data tool.  To get attributes of a member, you need to get a
member object from the MembershipTool, for example:

  <dtml-let member="portal_membership.getAuthenticatedMember()">
    <dtml-var "member.company">
  </dtml-let>
