I think two variables should suffice: one (boolean) to control whether
to quote standalone text/html parts, and one to control which parts of a
multipart/alternative part to quote.  The latter should take possible
values 'text, 'html, and 'both.  This requires the emacs reply
functionality to distinguish between html parts that are part of a
multipart/alternative and those which are not, which (AFAICT) the
current code doesn’t do.

I haven’t tested the patch yet, but it looks very promising.  Thanks!
