Sorry for the rant I've made.  In fact the patch is not well thought
out, think if I encounter such a prefix `> Super> ', sigh, not super any
more. ;-(

The point is that the code in `message-newline-and-reformat' seems to
presume the cited text *must* have prefix include char `>', because
`supercite-thing' must get matched.  But the situation is, I think,
supercite prefix can only occure one or zero time, and at the end of
prefix.  Or you mean `supercite-thing' can degenerate to normal prefix.

I've just thought `| ' looks good and tried to work out the troubles
it makes to me.  But now I thought a little more about it: It makes
troubles to others too, just like to myself.  The existence of the
convention is not without its reason.
