Restore the quotes from v11.

ALA has a nice HTML standard: https://alistapart.com/blog/post/more-thoughts-about-blockquotes-than-are-strictly-required/

…there's even a nice markdown-it plugin that matches: https://github.com/dweidner/markdown-it-attribution

Tufte CSS uses an older approach: http://html5doctor.com/blockquote-q-cite/#change-2012-02-14

Let's call them "clippings" and use Readwise to collect.

They don't have a proper API, but the Markdown export should be useful.

Quotebacks is worth aligning to, I think


<blockquote class="quoteback" darkmode="" data-title="Title of source" data-author="author" cite="source URL">
Body
<footer>author<cite> <a href="source URL">source URL</a></cite></footer>
</blockquote><script note="" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/Blogger-Peer-Review/quotebacks@1/quoteback.js"></script>

I now think of this as "clippings" and have Readwise exporting to Obsidian in almost-ready-to-publish files (one per source).

Almost. There may need to be a transform step from that export to proper source files.
