Dear experts,

as I wanted to implement the quotes again for α17 now with <<< instead of 
""", I noticed that it wouldn't be possible to quote quotes (neither would 
it be when I use """).

Using the one-line syntax, it's already okay. > is a quote >> is a quoted 
quote and so on.

But it wouldn't be possible to use this:

<<<
quote 1
<<<
quoted quote2
<<<
more of quote 1
<<<

I'm not exactly sure whether it would be possible to do this if we switch 
to >>> for the end:

<<<
quote 1
<<<
quoted quote2
>>>
more of quote 1
>>>

I mean: Would the parser be able to handle it? And if so, how would we 
distinguish in

<<<
quote
>>> cite

the cite from a simple

>>> cite

and would we want it?

Or would this syntax be something desireable?

<<<
quote 1
 <<<
quoted quote2
 <<<
more of quote 1
<<<

meaning: Indentation of the end markers shows where the end is. But isn't 
thespace character something to less visible? Wouldn't another character be 
better? Or maybe even adding more <?

<<<
quote 1
<<<<
quoted quote2
<<<<
more of quote 1
<<<

Please tell me what you think!
