Unless I'm reading this whole discussion wrong, I thought you could solve the quote problem by not quoting at all in the reply. If someone wishes to reply with a quote, they will have to cut and paste.
In the postbit and postbit_legacy templates...
replace...
<a href="$post[replylink]" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/<if condition="$post['forwardlink']">reply_small<else />quote</if>.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply_with_quote]" border="0" /></a>
with...
<a href="$post[replylink]&noquote=1" rel="nofollow"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/reply_small.gif" alt="$vbphrase[reply]" border="0" /></a>
