Description
Get rid of the special header and treat all drafts the same.
This probably requires some additional logic to figure out which text is the reply and what is the quoted text.
See e.g. #886

Research direction
Start by reading issue #886 and tracing the existing draft handling that uses the special header. Identify where reply text and quoted text are distinguished; done means drafts no longer depend on the special header and all drafts follow the same handling path.
