Then try editing your text in a block like:

  #+BEGIN_SRC message
  > ...
  #+END_SRC

You can edit the message with C-c ' and benefit from Message mode's
filling mechanism. Org recognizes its own prefixes and cannot cope with
other modes'.

I think you want to edit your message in Message mode, not in Org mode,
then.

I wouldn't call it a regression since this behaviour never was defined
as a feature in the first place.

Recognizing citation prefix means recognizing a new type of data in Org
syntax. I don't think it's worth it considering Org is not to replace
Message.
