What you are proposing is basically to wrap the environment into
\onslide+ \onslide* or \onslide commands.

These commands are only part of the available generic overlay
specifications in Beamer.

What about allowing something like

:BEAMER_ACT: \command<spec>

that will make Beamer wrap the exported environment like
\command<spec>{exported beamer block}?

Also, note that we are currently discussing a more general way to wrap
elements during export in
