As far as I can see, there is currently no easy way in to mark text as quote ('blockquote' or 'q') in htmlarea RTE - aside from fiddling around in the HTML source. For the purpose of increased accessibility as well as a clean, semantic markup, it should be easier to mark text as a quote ('q') or blockquote ('blockquote') - especially since quotations are not uncommon on websites.

Three things that could make an implementation a little bit challenging:
- <blockquote> requires that the iincluded text is enclosed with a block element, e.g. <blockquote><p>This is a quote</p></blockquote>.
- On the other hand, the <q> element requires to be enlosed within a block element, e.g. <p>The following text is a quotation: <q>May the force be with you!</q></p>
- Optionally quotations (be it either blockquote or q) can be referenced, e.g. <p>The following text is a quotation: <q cite="http://www.starwars.org/&quot;&gt;May the force be with you!</q></p>
