Unless it's a single line. But another way to approach it is to paint
any line that starts with non-alphanumerics as a quote (ignoring any
leading whitespace). This unfortunately paints separator lines (eg. a
line of 64 '=') as a quote. You could treat isolated lines like this
(blocks of only one kind of punctuation character with unquoted text
above and below) as non-quotes.

Treat the first line that contains 1-3 dashes (only) as the beginning
of a sig.
