As any decent mail client (i.e. Thunderbird) would do, it was displayed 
inline with a separator and when I hit Reply, the forwarded message was 
included and quoted automatically.

Here's a suggestion: By default, Forward uses the multipart message 
method of incuding the forwarded message. In the composer window, the 
user should be able to click/right-click on the "attachment" that 
represents the forward message and choose the "Inline" option which will 
add the forwarded message as inline text into the message body and 
remove the attachment.

Ciao,
Gordon
