In the old version, if I use the backspace to bring up the 3rd  
line as in this example..

    aa> akjdkjf akdfa akdf dkj akdjfkaj akjfdkaj
    aa> akdfkj afjdj  skj dsk kdsjdjk djidij
    aa> jsdkjs dsk sj

...I would get this result:

    aa> akjdkjf akdfa akdf dkj akdjfkaj akjfdkaj
    aa> akdfkj afjdj  skj dsk kdsjdjk djidij aa> jsdkjs dsk sj


...then YES, the extra aa> comes along for the ride.

But I revisited the issue using Golded just now, and YES.. the  
extra quote prefix gets auto-romoved, AND the line auto adjusts  
for the right length. That's pretty cool.

However.. in Winpoint, if I just highlight the original block  
(the first example in this message) the Reflow takes care of  
the problem.
