No, it didn't "just work". It mixed Org keywords, ignored line breaks...
which are part of Org syntax, unlike to mail citation markup. Fixing it
broke a side-effect you used. I understand this is annoying, but it is
all about priority.

And rst mode doesn't. Some major modes have such a feature, some others
don't.

Also, you have to admit that Org is a bit more complex than Text mode
(or Fundamental mode), and may have different requirements.

Again, what you call standard "Adaptive Fill" is not standard, since it
depends on the major mode.

I think external packages (filladapt.el?) might provide the
functionality you're after, assuming you configure them to play nicely
with Org.
