That's fine for me. But wow would this differ from having the possibility to set quotation (and other displayed environments) to not force new paragraphs? After all, a blockquotation can easily be tuned to force new paragraphs (just but before=\par and after=\par), but the converse is not true.
well, if before=\blank, that will not change; actually, quotations are hooked into narrower, which start/ends new pars; a more generic switch can be built in, but takes time, so in due time you can have that switch (with of course the danger that nothing generates a par anymore, or worse, that anybody disagrees with any defaults), but not in a quick and dirty hack; i will first make a proper startdisplay/stopdisplay, and after that it may go in some env's
