Did I miss something > obvious here? So I discovered the solution is to use `C-u R' instead of `S W'. Actually, there is both: `gnus-summary-reply-with-original' `gnus-article-reply-with-original' and both take care of the active region. But there is only `gnus-summary-wide-reply-with-original' and *no*: `gnus-article-wide-reply-with-original' Maybe this is a bit confusing? Or is there any strong argument behind this restriction?
