Many use that to quote on several posters at once. How do you deal with checking that?

I'm not asking to question your experience, but to see how you think it's possible. With my experience, I don't see how it could be implemented without some loopholes around it.
I would restrict the ability to change quoted text. You can still multi-quote, nested-quote, etc. You just can't change any text. If you want to only quote a small portion of a post, you highlight the text that you wish to quote, and then click quote. Some AJAX should do the trick, now that I think about it.

I would not allow the quote tag.
