Each ingredient (lemon juice, lemon zest, eggs, butter, sugar) plays a unique role in contributing to the texture and flavor of the curd.
Preparing a lemon curd is an exacting process, requiring special attention to selecting, preparing and assembling the freshest, highest-quality ingredients, blending them in the right order, and carefully cooking to the right temperature, to achieve a homogenous product.
For Lime Curd, use the same recipe but substitute 1 cup bottled lime juice and ¼ cup fresh lime zest for the lemon juice and zest.

Lemon zest (the yellow part of the peel) is commonly used to add flavor when cooking and baking by using the oils in the skin as a means of improving many food flavors.
Lemon zests are often used in sweets, such as cookies, cakes, tarts, pies, and custards, in baked dishes, and in flavored butters and sauces.
A citrus zester removes the zest in fine threads, which can be minced as an alternative to grating.

 Food Product Design: Culinary - June 2005 - Asian Flavor Invasions
One noteworthy ingredient -- relatively unknown outside of Japan -- sudachi, is a small citrus fruit similar to yuzu, but it is used in summer and autumn when still green for its sharp juice and fragrant zest.
I took wicked pleasure viewing each taster putting the grape in their mouth and then trying to figure out what they were tasting as the sudachi mingles several flavors at once: citrus hints of lemon, grapefruit and mandarin -- even pear and green notes.
When in Montreal for the recent Research Chefs Association conference, I showed a sudachi flavor as topical syrup on a grape.

Limoncello should be lemons, lemon zest, alcohol and (maybe) sugar.
So, except for something very basic and simple like limoncello, with few ingredients and little need to specify quantities, I don't think it's true that most recipes passed along on the Internet are ones that have been published somewhere, and are therefore findable if someone tries.
He also recommended a chestnut liquor, a hazelnut liquor and a cinnamon liquor (from Sicily), all of which he proudly imbibed over his holiday, and all of which are made the same way, just by soaking the main ingredient in straight alcohol.
