While this is of course possible, it is somewhat against the philosophy
of Org-mode, which encourages to store all information only once
and make all the needed lists dynamically.

However, you might want to export a file both to LaTeX and to HTML,
so we need both.  I agree that a general quote would be useful as well.
We currently have subtrees with the QUOTE tag, and lines starting with 
":"
as quotes.  But I guess we need something that can work in the middle of
a line, and we also need something like <example>...</example> in Muse.
