Possibly; at least in some form it does:

Yes!

> • Has anyone else ever thought of doing this? If yes, why didn't you?
Yes:
- Don't know elisp
- Found the above, which mostly worked. I had to edit my Org file to
feature a carriage return between text and my lists. ox-ravel appears
to export literally, and it appears knittr won't pick up a list if
there's no blank line between regular text and a list. In other words,
this:
list
- item1
- item2
Isn't the same as this:
list
- item1
- item2
Probably a simple enough fix, but just pointing out one nuance that
org in general and other exporters don't struggle with (they recognize
a list even with no blank line).

See if the attached are satisfactory
- test.org: just a heading, a couple lists, R code (and output), and an image
- test.Rmd: output of ox-ravel Rmd exporter
- test.html (well, a screenshot): results of opening test.Rmd in
RStudio and knitting
Let me know what you think!

- How does this work?
- Simple list
- 'Nother item
Numbered list
1) Switch it up
2) Numbers this time
Some code:
#+begin_src R
x <- 1:10
y <- x^2
