I understand how the other external editors do it, especially if you're
referring to Synchronet's msgeditor, and JSEditor. However, Slyedit is a
javascript clone of the original IceEdit and DCTEdit external editors. Those
work exactly like this.

I would rather select the text to quote manually so I can select exactly the
quoted text I'm replying to, than have the entire thread quoted on startup and
have to delete/remove a bunch of text that I'm not replying to. Especially
when messages can become very long quoted messages with single line replies (I
would just want to quote the single line). This is why I appreciate how
SlyEdit quotes, and don't use the other ones.

Of course, it's all preference. Use whatever you like best!

Regards,
Nick
