I would be happy with simply documenting this limitation and documenting a
solution, e.g. using enumitem one. Enumitem is a wonderful package, but I
see no reason to add it as a standard package because of this.
Do any of you have a place in mind where we could add this to the manual?
How about the "Plain lists in LaTeX export". I propose the following
change. WDYT? Can I commit/push?

commented out.
Plain lists accept two optional attributes: @code{:environment} and
@code{:options}. The first one allows the use of a non-standard environment
-(e.g., @samp{inparaenum}). The second one specifies additional arguments for
+(e.g., @samp{itemize*} of @samp{enumitem}). The second one specifies
additional arguments for
that environment.
@example
-#+ATTR_LATEX: :environment compactitem :options [$\circ$]
