Description
Mainly because of bug #3131, but useful in general is option "paste as quotation".
This feature is very well known in thunderbird. When you chose paste as quotation each line of text gets an additional ">" . This will not work until #3208 is fixed, as K9 currenlty removes all the quotation levels.
Thanks and best regards,
Adam

Research direction
Start by reading bug #3131 and issue #3208, since the request explicitly depends on both. Then locate the Android paste handling and quotation-level removal paths. Done means adding a paste-as-quotation option that prefixes each pasted line with ">" while preserving quotation levels.
