Weird things for my personal taste:
1. quotes are not attributed (as in "NNN wrote:")
2. quote marker is some form of whitespace (tab?)
3. signature is not dropped

GMail or not, there are some conventions and it is inconvenient for other people
when they are ignored.  Perhaps the style is customizable?

Yes, exactly.
