Indeed that this the trick.  The attached patch seems to work nicely and
takes care of the corner cases I could think of.

I now get the following (desirable) behavior

 - key :: foo | bar
          baz
# insert latex-environment with cdlatex

 - key :: foo | bar
          \begin{ENV}
          whatever
          \end{ENV}
          baz

Here's another case
p1
 - item | item
p2
# insert latex-environment with cdlatex
p1
 - item  item
   \begin{equation}
   \label{eq:9}
   
   \end{equation}

And more...

Behavior is better now.  To improve further I'd need to change cdlatex.el
and last time I tried it was ignored...
