If you have time, see if you can find practical examples of quoted
text that ends up being quoted incorrectly with this version, using
the pathological examples from the threads discussed.  The AI version
does things wrong with lines such as:

Foo bar
> Foo bar

which actually seem quite common (attributions), but maybe the simple
versions misbehaves in some similar bad way.

The differences are quite subtle though, so you probably won't notice
them unless you search for them...
