it will be nice if exchange will pay us the stake on our coins if we have them there instead of the wallets.

This could be done, but it would require a good deal of book keeping.

Additionally to gain interest those coins would need to sit on the network hot, and use up CPU power, taking away from deposits/withdraws.  There is risk to an exchange doing this, as such I would guess the majority of the coins are in cold storage, and those that are hot, are set with -reserveblance=999999999

I was going to say I seriously doubt they are keeping the bulk of the coins in a hot wallet. There have also been issues/exploits with malleability concerning POS coins... remember the whole blackcoin CryptoRush debacle?
