I'm afraid this doesn't give the desired result. While this fixes the inverted
margins issue, this keeps the whole paragraph in LTR-mode.

The expected result (created with rtlblockquote) would be this:
[cid:image004.jpg@01D7F0D9.6EFC58C0]
So, the question remains: is a dedicated startstop-pair to achieve this (what’s
the proper name of those anyway? In latex these are environments, but that
feels odd in context)? Or are there easier solutions?
