I don’t know how complicated it would be to automatically force a new line after a `[/quote]` (as long as it’s not in a codeblock or something like that…) and I understand that there is a structure to observe when using markdown.

But I also understand how frustrating it can be when a malformed quote appears in a user message because of such a tiny “mistake” that it is to write text on the same line that a `[/quote]` (not sure I can call that a mistake).  
Is there any purposeful case where text would be written on the same line as a `[quote]`?  
If there isn’t any, then I feel there is no reason at all for a text to exist on the same line and a forced new line after the closing quote tag could be beneficial for both users and staff. But I’m also sure that this is not as simple as it seems.
