Well, if the patch goes in and someone changes the code so that it no
longer sets the mark (in the same way), they will be the one breaking
stuff, and they’ll have to come up with the fix themself.  Using point-max
would include the signature in the quoting as well.  It would probably be
fairly odd to want to put an MML tag in one’s signature, but that doesn’t
mean that we should break that usage.

It would.  ;)  I’ll work on one.
