Regarding the proposal: I think that could go in the right direction,
but in the current form it has the downside that you can't use the
prefix anymore, right?

Not sure why you would need a prefix for this case, but org-cite has
two levels of affixes. So maybe:

[cite/quote:Prefix ;quote @doe19]

What about keeping this separate, like so:

[quote: A simple quote.][cite: @doe p. 45]

But maybe even that is not necessary, and there might be simpler ways.

Hmm .. org doesn't have an inline quote, I guess?

Don't know. That was just a suggestion.

Regarding simpler ways, why not just:

"A simple quote." [cite: @doe p. 45]

That way no information is lost, and you could just move around punctuation as appropriate. A distinct syntax might be more powerful, but also less readable.
