You illustrate the intrinsic flaw of your request quite
admirably; YOu start off in this message as if you and I have
been communicating; we have NOT. Unless I scroll down, I have
no idea what you're babbling about. And THEN I have to scroll
back up to read what you're actually saying.
Very sloppy format.

That's why you are given options to highlight quotes in any
decent clien; in Messenger 4.x, you could have quotes
italicized.
In Mozilla, you can do that PLUS have the quotes appear as a
different color.
Clients like Xnews all not only color changes, but each quote
layer can be a different color. And if THAT isn't enough, it
has a "skip quote" button that takes you directly to each new
section.

And that's still not likely to happen, as it's a stupid idea.
Signatures ALWAYS go at the BOTTOM of a message.
Didn't they teach you ANYTHING in school? ;-)
