however, if you capitalize [Quote] and [/Quote] the reply parcer won't catch it but the quote block will still display as expected.

Hmmm, on one hand, nested quotes won't be broken when someone replies and be confusing to those who don't know much about DText. On the other, they will have to be manually deleted if a reply chain gets too long, which someone who doesn't know much about DText probably won't do.

yeah, but the main utility of it isn't really having nested conversations it's so someone can quote something external like:

well,

according to experts:
A salamander is a wet kind of lizard.

have it still look and function like a normal quote, but have it be a lot easier for someone to respond to that part directly. because if I'd just used a normal uncapitalized quote box all they'd be able to quote was "well,".
