I subsequently rented a glider after presenting proof of insurance with
Avemco, and was told that they had contacted Avemco and Experimental
aircraft were not covered. My limited understanding is that many
gliders in the rental pool fall into the experimental category, perhaps
up to half. I guess you can't tell by type of glider either, as it
depends on how they were imported, equipment, etc. (my knowledge is
obviously sketchy here..)

Under what conditions can you rent an experimental glider? Doesn't 91.319
prohibit that?

How so? A pilot renting a glider is not "Carrying persons or property
for compensation or hire."
