Your impression is fully correct.

And I beg to differ. :)

Nope. Being in the editor - no matter if text or HTML - quote chars are of
course not converted to coloured borders. And they shouldn't be converted in
both cases. I'm only talking about displaying (not editing) a message.
The only reason why I sent a screen shot of the HTML editor was that I
wanted to illustrate that the HTML editor behaves exactly like the text
editor in terms of quoted lines and paragraphs. Which is good, but which
also should have consequences for displaying HTML messages.

Well, that's what I asked above:

Have you got an answer to that? Why and how shall the user use <blockquote>
tags, if Roundcube is putting quote chars in front of each line (which is
fine for me)? Apparently you expect the user to be re-formatting the entire
message (at least the quoted part)?
You're kidding, aren't you? ;)
