After redmine.org got an update (I believe somewhere in the past weekend) and I started triaging/supporting again today, I first noticed that the message-quoting functionality (both for topics and messages actually) in the forums module is broken. The buttons are rendered correctly but after pressing it, nothing happens.

At first in the understanding that this might be an issue on r.o only, I tried to reproduce this behavior on my Redmine test-box (currently) running source:/trunk@7939 and found out that this is actually a defect in, at least, current Redmine trunk.

The request is logged without errors (at least in my understanding) as:

Processing MessagesController#quote (for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx at 2011-11-27 21:14:20) [POST]
  Parameters: {"board_id"=>"1", "action"=>"quote", "authenticity_token"=>"", "id"=>"2", "controller"=>"messages"}
Completed in 12ms (View: 1, DB: 1) | 200 OK [http://host.domain.tld/boards/1/topics/quote/2]

I already tried to see if there were recent changes that had the possible impact to result in this broken functionality, like routes changes, but couldn't find anything.

FTR, the quoting in the issues module works fine.
