Amending a poster's quote

I have just replied to a post and was able to amend the bit quoted that I was replying / responding too.

In my case it was innocent; I was simply aiming to show the point I was replying to.

But surely; if you can amend the post you are replying to then this is wrong and open to abuse.

In fact I miss the option to replace paragraphs by [...] as I did in earlier times. Now I just have to delete everything I am not replying to.

My suggestion is to remove all cuts by "[...]" to show where the quoting poster removed words.
