For what it's worth, I ended up with this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq message-citation-line-function 'my-insert-citation-line)
(defun my-insert-citation-line ()
  (message-insert-formatted-citation-line)
  (when (message-mail-p)
   (delete-backward-char 1)
   (previous-line)
   (open-line 2)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So far, it has worked psychically.
