Well, I was lazy and I asked my question too soon.  I just now looked
inside of `gnus-article-fill-cited-article' within `gnus-cite.el' to
see what changes might be necessary to make it use the `filladapt'
quote filling, and I discovered that it calls `fill-region' at the
appropriate times.  Then, I looked inside of `filladapt.el', and it
turns out that one of the things it does is to replace the standard
`fill-region' with its own smarter version.

Therefore, simply by using `filladapt', the `W w' command will do the
right thing.  I did some testing to confirm this, and it indeed is the
case.

I wish all problems could be solved this easily!
