Actually the block quote I have use your wrap template :)
Just one thing I noticed:

,------ [ before wrap ]
| this is a line
| this is another line
| 
| this is yet another line
`----------

If I copy the above to the clipboard and apply your wrap template it becomes:

,------ [ after wrap ]
| this is a line this is another line
| 
| this is yet another line
`----------

That   is,  it  merges  lines  not separated by empty line. Can we avoid
this?

Well,   the   problem   is  not TB's regexps, it is regexp in general. I
have a minimal knowledge, just to use egrep efficiently but it's time to
master  it.  Especially  after  reading "Mastering Regular Expressions".
Yes,  regexp is hard to learn but once you master them the world becomes
less complicated :)
