This would be bad since it would break many other clients. TB, for
example, uses that character as a signal to color the quote line differently.
Other applications to the same thing. TB also knows that lines that have > in
the first few characters are quotes and will wrap them correctly. Other
applications do this as well. Allowing the user to choose a quote character
willy-nilly breaks that de-facto standard across the board.
