A couple of minor fixes:
* Don't strip the domain off the URL (thanks pineapple and cortex)
* Play nicely with mark contact contributions

Release notes for Mefiquote 2.0, just released:
* Quote format and button text are now fully configurable. Once you install the userscript, visit your preferences page to edit them
* Much faster on big threads than 1.0
* No more erroneous quote buttons on Recent History pages
* No more quote buttons on closed threads
* Plays nicely with "open links in new windows" preference
* Can quote the original post again

If you are having a problem such as the one Jack Mottram describes, try going into your Metafilter profile and turning off the "Open links in new windows" checkbox.

Nice script, really useful. I think it would be even more useful if it could work across all of Metafilter, so for example when a discussion in Metatalk references Ask Meta, the reference is shown in a floating box. Would this be possible?

Updated to handle some new alternating-color markup.

It works wonderfully for me on Ask MetaFilter and MetaTalk, but on MetaFilter itself, clicking 'quote' does nothing but open a new tab in Firefox. Which is a bit of a shame.
