This is EXAMPLE environment and, in a less drastic way, VERSE
(patched).

This is QUOTE environment, almost. Lists are correctly exported, but
not recognized in the Org buffer.

I agree. So, if the patch for VERSE is good, what's left is to let Org
recognize lists in some predefined environments (namely CENTER and
QUOTE).
