It's a bit of a pain in gmail but I've gotten used to it. After clicking
reply I use Ctl-A which expands the previous message, Ctl-Home to cancel
out the select all, and then Delete twice to bring the last message to the
top and then edit/trim as usual.
(Trying this from Gmail). Interesting, but that still doesn't allow
selective quoting in the reply, other than by manually deleting the
unwanted bits. The previous behaviour was to quote only the selected text,
as happens with the other MUAs mentioned.
