Google docs support collaborative highlighting of quotes and comments. The comments are exportable, see this and this

The highlight could be the default quote. The comment could contain simple key-value pairs:

title: bla bla
tags: tag1, tag2, tag3
page: 3

The page is only necessary if there is no way to get the page number for a comment.
