With different colors set for different quote levels:

  color quoted  blue     default
  color quoted1 magenta  default
  color quoted2 red      default

and using the default $quote_regexp and Mutt's built-in pager,
why do the following lines show up in different colors?

> This is in "quoted" color
| This is in "quoted1" color
: This is in "quoted2" color
} This is in "quoted" color
# This is in "quoted1" color
> This is in "quoted" color again

Shouldn't they all use the "quoted" (first level) color, since
they are all first-level quotes?

It seems when the _leading_ quote prefix changes, the color
sequence is not reset, but continues where it left off, and going
back to the first leading quote prefix ("> " above), resets it
again.  (Vim, for example, seems to display this correctly,
although it uses different quote prefixes by default.)
