A block quote — the Markdown everybody already writes.

> A plain quote.

A quote holds one run of words, not a stack of blocks. A hand-written quote of two paragraphs is read as one quote whose paragraphs are joined by a break: the division was the author's, so it is kept as a break rather than flowed away.

A quote whose first line opens with [!TYPE] is a callout, not a quote — that marker is the only thing that tells them apart.

A trailing  inside a quote is kept verbatim and draws nothing; alignment is read on headings, paragraphs and buttons only. Empty paragraphs inside a quote body are out of scope in this version.
