Actually, I'm not sure what the ideal behavior should be. Perhaps it's
better to distinguish 1) and 2) above, and have two options
--reply-to-email=<file> doing 1), and --quote doing 2), implying
--compose and requiring --reply-to-email.

That would be more flexible, but that would require two new options, and
I also like to keep things simple.

In any case, quoting the message without replying to it does not make
sense (especially if you add instructions to trim it: the user would not
even see it). So it its current form, I'd say --quote-email should imply
--annotate.
