As you're referring to the standard sig separator you should be aware
that it's not double dash, it's dash, dash, space (-- ).

Initially, I thought "nonsense" as I've selected stuff below the sig
separator and quoted it without issue.  However, what I hadn't done is
tried selecting text that *straddles* the separator.  That results in
the behaviour you describe.

I'd say this is a bug since, IMO, no MUA should ignore the user's
selection of text, wherever it lies.

Finally, there is an option (in Accounts prefs) for setting the sig
separator, but that, AFAICT, has no bearing on the issue you describe.
