What is the proper way to markup a note that reiterates only a part  
of a verse and that part is the start of a quotation which use <q> in  
the verse?

Example:
The note is: (where {} indicate italics)
Lit {saying, ``The}

The only things I can come up with are:
1) Don't use the quote element in notes.
        Lit <hi type="italic">saying,β€œThe</hi>


2) Use milestoned version of the <q> element
        Lit <hi type="italic">saying, <q marker="β€œ" level="1" sID="xxx"/ 
 >The</hi>

3) Use a continuation mark:
        Lit <hi type="italic">saying, <milestone marker="β€œ" type="cQuote"/ 
 >The</hi>

4) Use milestoned version of the <q> element and close the element by  
changing the publisher's material, adding an ellipsis.
        Lit <hi type="italic">saying, <q marker="β€œ" level="1" sID="xxx"/ 
 >The ...<q marker="" level="1" eID="xxx"/></hi>

Note: All of these work in Sword just fine. None of them seem quite  
right to me. I'm inclined to do 2.
