Maybe I've figured out the problem. It seems that some list parameters (inside self-defined, modified quote/enumerate environments, but it's true for itemize too) like \leftmargin or \rightmargin have no effect at all! I discovered that one has to define something like \DeclareInstance{justification}{QuoteB}{std}% { leftskip=13dd, rightskip=0dd, } and use it inside the environment definition, but it stops working in list environments with labels ...
