Greetings,

I'm using preproc to tweak the markup to my liking, and one thing I'd
like to do is use "> " or email style quotes instead of TABs.
So far, I've got something silly like
%!preproc: "^> > > > > " "\t\t\t\t\t"
%!preproc: "^> > > > " "\t\t\t\t"
%!preproc: "^> > > " "\t\t\t"
%!preproc: "^> > " "\t\t"
%!preproc: "^> " "\t"

I'm pretty sure I am understanding the preproc appropriately- that
they are applied in-order- so the longest string should come first.  I
have misgivings for a couple of reasons:
- This is ugly (like using 10 if-else statements instead of a case statement).
- This doesn't cover all the bases (that ONE time I have 6 quotations
deep, my document will look like junk).
- I think preproc will completely ignore any tags that would effect
these characters. example

```
Email in verbatim block.
> but this "quotation" formatting
> will be replaced with TAB

> will be indented
```

Is there a proper way to do this without N preproc statements?  I'd
like to avoid changing the python code itself (replace the TAB markup
with "> " strings).

Also, is the svn version of the code "stable"? and are the changes
currently in SVN (like the "tags" block) going to be distributed as
another 2.X version before the big v3?
