It is. It is often difficult or even impossible to see what someone 
replies to, especially if a thread has developed several branches.

However, quoting should be limited to what is absolutely necessary. 
There is a nice howto which mainly refers to usenet, but since we 
have similar structures here it is applicable, too:

especially: http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote2.html

Ideally a proper quoted text should be readable like a dialogue...
